Budget talks heating up, teachers tell of financial hardships By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

REDMOND — More than 80 teachers attended the Redmond School Board’s Wednesday meeting, and several of them spoke about their concerns over proposed cuts to the 2011-12 budget. The district’s budget process began several months ago, and in the last two months, there have been at least three separate budget proposals designed to overcome a more than $8 million shortfall. Earlier this week, the district announced a new proposal that would keep all staff salaries at current levels. The school calendar, from which six days were cut this year, would also remain the same. There would be no cost-of-living raises and the district would not reimburse teachers for education. During Wednesday’s meeting, teachers described the effect three consecutive years of cuts has had on their lives, and many of their comments were met with applause from colleagues. Some teachers spoke about being the only person in the household with a regular salary. Others worried about the effect of cuts on younger teachers. Some teachers encouraged the district to look elsewhere for savings, with one teacher suggesting functions like lawn maintenance and cleaning be contracted to outside companies. Valerie Grindstaff, a fourthgrade teacher, said that with each year keeping financially afloat has become more difficult for her family. Grindstaff said her salary was her household’s main source of income. “I just wonder if there are better ways to solve the budget crisis than to put it on the back of employees,” Grindstaff said. The union representing classified employees, which includes janitors and secretaries, has already tentatively agreed to the district’s budget proposal. Classified staff will vote next week.

SALEM — Faced with the prospect of thousands of low-income individuals and children losing coverage under the Oregon Health Plan, law-

makers announced a plan Wednesday that some believe would help alleviate some of the cuts proposed to the state’s Medicaid program. The idea: Increase an existing tax on 26 of the state’s hospitals, includ-

U|xaIICGHy02329lz[

ing St. Charles in Bend. The tax would go from its current rate of 2.3 percent to 4 percent of the hospital’s revenue and would raise an estimated $660 million to help cover projected cuts in the state’s

Medicaid program, known as the Oregon Health Plan. One Republican lawmaker, Rep. Tim Freeman of Roseburg, who was part of the legislative group that worked behind the scenes on the plan, said the bill is not “a tax on the people.” See Hospitals / A5

EMERGENCY EVALUATIONS

How will Ochoco Dam fare in an earthquake?

IN THE LEGISLATURE

Democrats put GOP on the spot as Medicare vote fails By Jennifer Steinhauer New York Times News Service

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Crews drill test holes into Ochoco Dam on Wednesday to analyze the strength of its foundation. The dam, five miles upstream from Prineville, was built using a method called hydraulic fill, which experts say can be more vulnerable to earthquakes.

With experts saying a major coastal quake is due, the dam, finished in 1920, is under scrutiny

Ochoco Dam’s earthquake risk The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a 680-mile-long fault located 50 miles off the coast of the Pacific Northwest. It is where the Juan de Fuca Plate dives beneath North America. In 1700, it caused a magnitude-9 earthquake. Experts believe it is overdue for another massive quake, and the Bureau of Reclamation is proposing to re-evaluate how well Ochoco Dam would withstand such a quake. A breach could send a flood down Ochoco Creek into downtown Prineville. BRITISH COLUMBIA

Plan aims to keep 60,000 on state health coverage, lawmaker says

Bureau of Reclamation drilling crews are testing the embankments and foundations of Ochoco Dam to see if it could withstand a giant earthquake off the Oregon coast. The Cascadia Subduction Zone, a fault that runs off the West Coast from British Columbia to California, is predicted to rupture at some point in a magnitude 9.0 quake that lasts for minutes — similar to the 9.0 quake that hit Japan in March, destroying buildings and roads and generating a devastating tsunami. So the Bureau of Reclamation is re-evaluating how well structures like Ochoco Dam, east of Prineville, would cope, even though many of them are hundreds of miles away from the coast. “The strength of the embankment and foundation materials are one concern,” said Larry Wolf, safety of dams program manager for the Bureau of Reclamation’s Pacific Northwest Region. The agency has already started the evaluation process on several dams in the region, and Ochoco Dam was next on the list to examine. The dam is on Ochoco Creek, about five miles upstream from Prineville. Ochoco Dam was built between 1918 and 1920 using a method called hydraulic fill, which involves taking material from the hillside and using water to sluice it down to an embankment, creating an earthen dam. Dams built using this technique don’t fare as well as other types of dams in earthquakes, Wolf said.

“Because of that hydraulic fill technique, it ends up with a material that’s not very dense,” he said. “So it’s not as strong and doesn’t hold up as well.” Ochoco Dam was tested to see how well it could withstand earthquakes in the 1990s and subsequently modified due to concerns about seepage, he said. But at that time, the Bureau of Reclamation was looking only at the possibility of nearby earthquakes — which wouldn’t be as strong, or last for as long, as what’s expected from the Cascadia Subduction Zone, Wolf said.

WASHINGTON — Less than 24 hours after their surprising victory in the race for a vacant House seat in New York, Democrats forced Senate Republicans on Wednesday to vote yes or no on a bill that would reshape Medicare, signaling their intent to use the issue as a blunt instrument against Republicans through the 2012 election. Democrats staged the vote to press their advantage coming out of their victory on Tuesday in the contest, fought in large part over Medicare, for a House seat in upstate New York that had long been in Republican hands. Sen. Harry Reid, the majority leader, brought the legislation to the floor so that Senate Republicans would either have to vote for it, exposing them to attacks from Democrats and their allies, or against it, exploiting growing Republican divisions on the issue. Five of 47 Senate Republicans voted against it — four because they said it went too far, one on the grounds that the budget measure that contained it did not go far enough fast enough to address the budget deficit.

Looking beyond poor eating habits and couch-potato lifestyles, a group of researchers has found a new culprit in the obesity epidemic: the American workplace. A sweeping review of shifts in the labor force since 1960 suggests that a sizable portion of the national weight gain can be explained by declining physical activity during the workday. Jobs requiring moderate physical activity, which accounted for 50 percent of the labor market in 1960, have plummeted to 20 percent. The remaining 80 percent of jobs are sedentary or require only light activity. The shift translates to an average decline of 120 to 140 calories a day in physical activity, closely matching the nation’s steady weight gain over the past five decades, according to the report, published Wednesday in the journal PLoS One.

While schools brush aside current events, one teacher goes beyond the curriculum By Michael Winerip New York Times News Service

FARMINGTON, Conn. — To Robert Barry, a senior at Farmington High School, it seems normal to have a war or two going on while you’re growing up. “Afghanistan started when we were in third grade,” he said. “We heard about it, but it’s in the background — we stopped noticing it.” Julia Morrow, also a senior in this upscale suburb of Hartford, said that she and her friends “grew up not following the war and got used to not following it.” For their classmate Samantha Selldorff, the indifference is a reminder of a lesson in Advanced Placement biology. “We studied how animals stop reacting to a stimulus after a certain length of time,” she said. “That’s what the war has become to us.” None of this was OK with Chris Doyle, who teaches AP U.S. history here. “These wars will be the defining experience of their generation,” said Doyle, who is 51 and has a doctorate in history. “And they learn nothing about them in school.” When Doyle began his career 25 years ago, schools taught current events. But standardized testing and canned curriculums have squeezed most of that out of public education. The AP history course is a yearlong race to master several centuries’ worth of facts that may or may not turn up on the exam in May. “A lot of AP is memorizing timelines,” explained Anna Hagadorn, who memorized enough last year to earn a top score of 5. Even the College Board, which makes so much money selling SAT and AP tests that it can pay its president, Gaston Caperton, $872,061 a year, has acknowledged that its AP U.S. history exam needs to be revamped. Caperton has promised by 2013 to deliver a new test that will do a better job of fostering analytic skills.

Learning about wars (no textbook needed) Doyle is way ahead of him. For the past several years, after his students have completed their AP exams in early May, he has taught a five-week course on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. “Public education must engage the most pressing and troubling issues of our time,” he once wrote in an essay for an education journal. There is no textbook yet for these wars, so Doyle does what teachers did in the olden days: creates his own curriculum. Students read excerpts from “Plan of Attack,” by Bob Woodward; “The Forever War,” by Dexter Filkins; “Imperial Life in the Emerald City: Inside Iraq’s Green Zone,” by Rajiv Chandrasekaran; and many more. He brings in combat veterans to speak, including Jonathan Lebeau, a retired Navy medic who is a half-brother of a former student; Richard Williams, a retired major in the British army and a former neighbor; and Peter Van Loon, a retired Navy captain who attends the same church as Doyle. Van Loon told the students about the time a U.S. convoy in Afghanistan killed a 12-year-old boy, who “was my own boy’s age.” He described his feelings when he and a village elder negotiated over how much money the U.S. military would pay to compensate the

family for their dead son. The moment they put down their No. 2 pencils, most AP history students forget the three ways the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions, the Hartford Convention and the South Carolina Exposition and Protest were similar. Doyle’s students aren’t likely to forget Van Loon. Caitlan Miranda took the class last year. Asked if she remembered whether Van Loon supported or opposed the war, she said, “I wouldn’t exactly say it was either,” adding, “I’d say he was conflicted” — which was exactly right.

Relating present, past Last week, the class read parts of Woodward’s book, which addresses the Bush administration’s claims that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Doyle asked if his students saw parallels to other wars. Henry Donaldson mentioned the use of the sinking of the battleship Maine to justify the 1898 war with Spain. Abbie Murphy saw similarities to the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin resolution, which paved the way for America’s entry into the Vietnam War. Morgan Schreck cited President Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points speech, intended to vindicate the country’s involvement in World War I. But Alex Abrams said 9/11 was different from all those. “It was the only one involving an actual attack on our soil,” he said. Doyle had hoped they would see the difficulty of comparing wars, and when they did, he quickly moved on to former Vice President Dick Cheney and the claim that Iraq sought uranium in Niger. Year to year, 50 percent to 85 percent of Doyle’s students have passed the AP exam (earning at least a 3). This puzzles him because he is, after all, the same teacher teaching the same way. He doesn’t know if it can be explained by differences in students from year to year, differences in the exam or something else. “I’ve dissected the test,” he said. “I want them to do well. I’m a little bit at a loss.” Whatever the reason, the fluctuations suggest that the current excitement about evaluating teachers based on their students’ test scores may not be foolproof. Although students feel smarter after a year with Doyle, his course doesn’t seem to change their opinion of the wars. Sabrina Santos, who got a 4 on the test last year, went into Room 804 in support and left in support. Seyi Adeyinka, who scored a 5 and plans to attend Yale, still opposes the war in Afghanistan. But when Doyle taught the students about the Taliban’s treatment of women, for the first time she understood why people might support it. Anna Hagadorn was on the fence and remains on the fence. Anna says she learned a lot, and not just about war. She learned the pleasure of having a teacher who doesn’t teach to the test. She learned that most of history is not in a textbook. She learned not to say “lifestyle” and “interesting”: Doyle says they’re bland words and doesn’t allow them in class. And she learned something in one year with Doyle that many people do not learn in a lifetime. “I learned not to speak on a subject when I’m not informed on it,” she said.

N.J. ordered to increase aid to poor schools by $500M By Winnie Hu and Richard Perez-Pena New York Times News Service

The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that a major piece of Gov. Chris Christie’s cost-cutting was unconstitutional, and ordered lawmakers to raise spending for poor, urban schools by $500 million next year, despite a state budget shortfall estimated at $10 billion. The decision is a new milestone in the intertwined disputes over school financing, taxation and the role of the courts that have

roiled the state’s politics since the 1970s. And those disputes remain far from over; the ruling intensifies Christie’s running battles with the Supreme Court and the Legislature, and it will resonate in the coming negotiations to balance the budget, negotiate new contracts with state workers and rescue the government employee pension plans. The majority in the 3-to-2 decision accused the state of willfully violating previous Supreme Court orders in the long-running school-aid case under review.

Michelle Rhee, former schools chancellor of Washington, D.C., and George Parker, former president of the local teachers’ union, are both part of Students First, a national group seeking to influence educators and lawmakers across the country.

Ex-foes join forces on reform By Sam Dillon New York Times News Service

Michelle Rhee butted heads frequently during her threeyear tenure as schools chancellor of Washington, D.C., with the president of the local teachers’ union, George Parker, and eventually a voter backlash over the city’s school reform wars cost both of them their jobs. Now, in a strange-bedfellows twist, Rhee has named Parker as the first senior fellow of Students First, the national group she formed after stepping down as chancellor last fall. She says she hopes Parker can be a compelling voice for change, especially in speaking to teachers’ union members around the country. He says Rhee hates teachers’ unions less than most people think. “We had our fair share of shouting matches, but overall we get along well,” Rhee said. “I see tremendous potential in having somebody who was president of a local teachers’ union advocating on behalf of policies that other unions are fighting against bitterly.” As a senior fellow, Parker will travel the country speaking to state legislators, teachers and union members about the need to overhaul American public schooling. Neither Rhee nor Parker would disclose the stipend he will receive for the part-time position. “I can tell you this, I’m not doing it for the money,” said Parker, who is a math teacher with 25 years of experience. Rhee, one of the most polarizing figures in public education, resigned as chancellor after Mayor Adrian Fenty lost Washington’s 2010 Democratic primary, a defeat

that political analysts said was, in part, fallout from the draconian school policies that Fenty and Rhee carried out from 2007 through 2010. After Rhee announced her intention to resign, without setting a specific date, Parker said, “I think leaving sooner is better than later.” About a month later, Parker was out too, defeated in a re-election bid by a challenger who accused him of giving up too much to Rhee, especially in the contract signed in the spring of 2010. That agreement gave teachers a 21 percent raise over five years while weakening seniority and other job protections. Rhee also inaugurated a new teacher evaluation system during Parker’s tenure that holds teachers accountable for student test scores and has led to the dismissal of more than 100 teachers who got poor ratings. Weeks after her resignation, Rhee began Students First, with the ambitious goal of raising $1 billion to lobby legislatures and back political candidates. She has said that the group’s “ultimate goal is to shift the power dynamic of education in this country, which I think for far too long has been dominated by special interests, whether the teachers’ unions or textbook manufacturers.” Rhee said this week that she had called Parker shortly after his defeat in the union election, beginning a dialogue about the role of unions in changing schools. “My mindset has been that

we’re not going to change the unions; their purpose is just to protect their members and that’s it,” Rhee said. But in their conversations, she said, Parker told her, “We in the unions have to change or we’re not going to be relevant.” “I thought that was compelling — not that I bought into it 100 percent,” she said. Parker said he did “serious thinking” before accepting Rhee’s offer, knowing that some of his fellow union leaders would find it suspicious, but decided to join up because he believes it is important for all educators to seek common ground. “There’s not much I can do to change the minds of those who think this is some kind of a sellout,” he acknowledged. Parker informed Randi Weingarten, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, in a text message last Wednesday, just moments before he and Rhee announced publicly that he would join Students First. “I had to read the message a couple of times,” Weingarten said. “I thought it was a joke. I texted him back, ‘REALLY?’” Then Weingarten watched the odd couple make their televised announcement on MSNBC’s program “Morning Joe.” “I wish George well,” Weingarten said. “He’s a good man.”

In Parliament, Obama urges Britain, U.S. to meet ‘demands of a new era’ By Scott Wilson The Washington Post

LONDON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday called for a new chapter in the long history between the United States and Britain, saying that global economic, military and climate challenges require “remaking ourselves to meet the demands of a new era.” Even as he spoke of how much the world has changed since the allies emerged victorious from World War II, Obama told a joint session of Parliament that U.S.British cooperation — in military, diplomatic, economic and humanitarian efforts — remains essential to ensuring global security. “As new threats spread across borders and oceans, we must dismantle terrorist networks and stop the spread of nuclear weapons, confront climate change

and combat famine and disease,” Obama said. “And as a revolution races through the streets of the Middle East and North Africa, the entire world has a stake in the aspirations of a generation that longs to determine its own destiny.” Obama said that, despite the need for both countries to reduce public debt that could “sap the strength and vitality of our economies,” the United States and Britain must continue to remain engaged in a world in which Brazil, India, China and other developing countries are becoming important forces. “It’s become fashionable in some quarters to question whether the rise of these nations will accompany the decline of American and European influence around the world,” Obama said. “That argument is wrong. The

time for our leadership is now.” Although he did not make new policy declarations or articulate a different relationship between the United States and its European allies, Obama celebrated a partnership that, in the past decade, has waged war in three Muslim nations and suffered through the global economic downturn. His challenge was to argue that much of the sacrifice, in lives and money, has made a difference in creating a more stable, safer world — and that the partnership must continue its missions in Afghanistan and Libya, despite the strain on national treasuries. He said the countries “have arrived at a pivotal moment once more.” Obama delivered his address in the historic Westminster Hall, becoming the first U.S. president to speak there.

Unpredictable leader compounds Edwards indicates Yemen’s bloody civil conflict By Robert F. Worth and Laura Kasinof New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The president of Yemen, Ali Abdullah Saleh, has long been known as a devious and unpredictable ruler, famous for his brinkmanship. Yet in recent days, as Yemen slips from political crisis into bloody civil conflict, Saleh’s evasions have become downright bizarre — exasperating kings, presidents and even many of his own loyalists. Three times, he has promised to sign an agreement to transfer power in the face of vast street protests, only to back out at the last minute for reasons that seem trivial. “Even by his own standards of what is rational, he is not being rational,” said one U.S. official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Last week, John Brennan, the White House counterterrorism chief, called Saleh and told him that if he signed the agreement to step down, President Barack Obama would single out the Yemeni president as a positive example of change in his long-awaited speech on the Middle East, according to another administration official. U.S. officials and Saudi Arabia have grown deeply worried about the political vacuum in Yemen, which has been a boon to al-Qaida’s local affiliate. Saleh promised he would sign. But he changed his mind again, this time in spectacular fashion. On Sunday, as diplomats waited

for him to arrive at the signing ceremony in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, hundreds of armed supporters of Saleh surrounded the building and trapped them for hours, preventing the ceremony from taking place. Later, some of his subordinates signed the document, but Saleh refused, saying he wanted the political opposition — who had already signed it and had not been invited until late in the process — to be present. On Wednesday, the capital echoed with exploding mortar shells for the third day in a row. Dozens of people have been killed; one local doctor said he had confirmed 54 dead on the opposition side alone. The State Department ordered all eligible family members of U.S. government employees and some nonessential personnel to leave the country, according to a statement on its website. The conflict pits Saleh’s security forces against his tribal rivals, the Ahmar family, whose members play leading roles in the political opposition. The two sides are struggling for control of important government buildings, including the Interior Ministry, which are near the Ahmar family compound. The United States, which has worked closely with Yemen on counterterrorism, is now considering pushing for U.N. resolutions or even sanctions against Saleh and his family members, to pressure him to sign the agreement.

he will fight any charges By Katharine Q. Seelye New York Times News Service

John Edwards, the onceascendant trial lawyer who became a senator and twice ran for president, indicated Wednesday that he would fight any criminal charges that he misused his campaign funds to cover up an extramarital affair. After reports emerged that the Justice Department had decided to bring criminal charges against Edwards, his lawyer, Gregory Craig, issued a defiant statement saying that the government was operating only on an untested “theory” and that Edwards was not guilty. “John Edwards has done wrong in his life — and he knows it better than anyone — but he did not break the law,” the statement said. The Justice Department is planning to charge Edwards with violating campaign finance laws; prosecutors say he used money that should have been reported as campaign donations to cover up the affair, which produced a child, wrecked his marriage and ended his political career. Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

TUCSON, Ariz. — A federal judge ruled Wednesday that Jared Loughner was not mentally competent to stand trial on charges that he opened fire at a constituent event for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in January, killing six and injuring her and 12 others. The ruling by Judge Larry Burns of U.S. District Court suspends the court proceedings against Loughner while the suspect, who experts said has schizophrenia, undergoes treatment at a federal psychiatric facility in Springfield, Mo. Before the judge’s decision, Loughner disrupted the hearing with an outburst that prompted deputy marshals to carry him from the room. He will return to court Sept. 21, when the judge will review again whether Loughner understands the 49 charges against him and can assist in his defense. It remains possible, legal experts said, that Loughner will never be found competent and could remain in a psychiatric facility indefinitely, but prosecutors said they hoped the trial would resume. “Our goal has always been and always will be to go to trial,” said Dennis Burke, a U.S. attorney, speaking to reporters outside the courthouse. Loughner, 22, looked haggard when he walked into court in shackles. Shaved bald and standing erect during his first court appearance in January, he now has long sideburns and unkempt hair and walks stooped over. He rocked back and forth in his chair during the proceedings, buried his face in his hands midway through and interrupted the judge with an outburst. “Thank you for the freak show,” he appeared to say. “She died right in front of me. You’re treasonous.” Other witnesses heard him say, “Thank you for the free shot,” and court officials were reviewing the recording.

An artists’ rendering shows Jared Loughner with his head in his hands during a competency hearing in federal court in Tucson, Ariz., on Wednesday. Charged with shooting U.S. Rep. Garbrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., and 18 others, Loughner was deemed by a federal judge today to be incompetent to stand trial. A lawyer close to the case said that Loughner continues to believe that he killed Giffords and that he has clashed with his lawyer, Judy Clarke, who told him that the congresswoman survived a bullet wound to the head. Loughner’s parents, Randy and Amy, who were in the courtroom, sobbed when the judge said experts believed the suspect’s mental health had been in decline for two years. Since his arrest, Loughner’s classroom outbursts at Pima Community College here, which expelled him, and his bizarre rantings on the Internet have come to light. Loughner faces separate state charges and those will also be

suspended until he is determined to be competent, officials said. Loughner was arrested after being wrestled to the ground by bystanders at the scene of the Jan. 8 shooting in a grocery store parking lot where Giffords, an Arizona Democrat, was meeting with constituents. Loughner is charged with walking up to the congresswoman and shooting her, then turning his gun on others in the crowd. Among the dead were John Roll, a federal judge in Tucson, and 9year-old Christina-Taylor Green, both of whom were mentioned prominently in a speech that President Barack Obama gave here shortly after the shooting.

Former street preacher gets life in prison in Smart case

Egypt to open Gaza Strip border crossing, raising Israeli concerns By Ernesto Londono and Joel Greenberg The Washington Post

By Jennifer Dobner The Associated Press

SALT LAKE CITY — Elizabeth Smart finally got her chance Wednesday to confront the street preacher convicted of holding her captive and raping her for months when she was just 14. Now 23, she stood tall in the courtroom — stoic, with an even voice and a strength Brian David Mitchell clearly lacked. Mitchell, frail and skinny with a long, peppery white beard, sang hymns softly and closed his hollow eyes, just as he did throughout his trial, just as he would moments later as the judge gave him two life sentences without parole. That did not stop Smart from looking right at him and coolly speaking her piece. It took her about 30 seconds. “I don’t have very much to say to you. I know exactly what you did,” said Smart, wearing a houndstooth checked skirt, an ivory jacket and pearls. “I know that you know that what you did was wrong. You did it with full knowledge ... but I have a wonderful life now and no matter what you do, you will never affect me again. “You took away nine months of my life that can never be returned. You will have to be held responsible for those actions, whether it’s in this life or the next, and I hope you are ready for when that time comes.” Mitchell’s sentencing closed a major legal chapter in the heartbreaking ordeal that stalled for years after he was declared mentally ill and unfit to stand trial in state court. A federal jury in December unanimously convicted the 57-year-old of kidnapping and unlawful transportation of a minor across state lines for sex. When the judge asked if he had anything to say, Mitchell, whose hands and feet were bound, kept right on singing.

Work Continued from A1 Today, an estimated 1 in 3 Americans is obese. Researchers caution that workplace physical activity most likely accounts for only one piece of the obesity puzzle, and that diet, lifestyle and genetics all play an important role. But the new emphasis on declining workplace activity also represents a major shift in thinking, and it suggests that health care professionals and others on the front lines against obesity, who for years have focused primarily on eating habits and physical activity at home and during leisure time, have missed a key contributor to America’s weight problem. The findings also put pressure on employers to step up workplace heath initiatives and pay more attention to physical activity at work. “If we’re going to try to get to the root of what’s causing the obesity epidemic, work-related physical activity needs to be in the discussion,” said Dr. Timothy Church, an exercise researcher at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, La., and the study’s lead author. “There are a lot of people who say it’s all about food. But the work environment has changed so much we have to rethink how we’re going to attack this problem.” The report shows that in 1960, 1 in 2 Americans had a job that was physically active. Now it is estimated that only 1 in 5 Americans achieves a relatively high level of physical activity at work. Church notes that because the research does not factor in technological changes, like increasing reliance on the Internet and e-mail, many people in service and desk jobs that have always involved only light activity are now moving less than ever, meaning the findings probably understate how much physical activity has been lost during work hours. While it has long been known that Americans are more sedentary at work compared with the farming and manufacturing workers of 50 years ago, the new study is believed to be the first in which anyone has estimated how much daily caloric expenditure has been lost in the workplace. “It’s a light bulb, ‘aha’ moment,” said Barbara Ainsworth, the president-elect of the Ameri-

CAIRO — Egypt will permanently open its border crossing with the Gaza Strip this weekend, the government announced Wednesday, suggesting that military leaders are being swayed by growing sentiment here in favor of distancing the country from Israel. Opening the Rafah crossing, the only official entry point outside Israel into the Palestinian territory, would ease the blockade imposed after the militant group Hamas took control of the strip in 2007. A report by Egypt’s staterun Middle East News Agency said the move was being adopted to “end the status of the Palestinian division and achieve national reconciliation.” The report said the border would reopen Saturday but provided no other details. Israel warned that fully reopening the crossing could allow Hamas to build up its arsenal and create a dangerous situation. An Israeli government official urged Egypt

to continue blocking arms shipments to Hamas. Bowing to Israeli concerns and worried about a spillover of Islamic militant activity into Egypt, the Egyptian government has kept the Rafah crossing closed or partially closed in the years since Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip. Until last year, Egypt had opened the crossing periodically for a few days at a time every several weeks for a limited number of people, mostly medical cases and students. In the past year, however, the crossing has been opened for limited passage since a deadly Israeli naval raid on a Turkish aid flotilla to Gaza in May 2010 drew attention to the Israeli and Egyptian border closures. Israel was compelled to ease its Gaza blockade under international pressure after the flotilla raid. Since the Egyptian revolution that ousted President Hosni Mubarak in February, no more than 300 Palestinians a day were allowed to leave Gaza. Now that limit will be lifted, and other restrictions will be eased, officials said. Ghazi Hamad, the deputy foreign minister of the Hamas gov-

ernment in Gaza, said in a telephone interview that Egypt linked opening the border to the recent reconciliation pact between Hamas and Fatah, the mainstream Palestinian faction that administers the West Bank. Now that the pact has been signed, Egypt is following through with its commitment, he said. Hamad said: “This is a very positive step. We appreciate the efforts from the Egyptian side to facilitate the travel of people. It will have a very good impact on the situation in Gaza. I hope this will be implemented honestly and can be done in such a way that people will feel a new era in the Gaza Strip.” Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil Elaraby announced a day after the reconciliation deal last month that his country would soon take steps to “ease the blockade on Gaza,” describing his country’s involvement in it as “shameful.” Hamad said Wednesday: “The reconciliation agreement encouraged the Egyptians to take more positive steps. They told us before that if there is a reconciliation agreement between Hamas and Fatah, the situation at the crossing will completely change.”

A few years ago, the district hired an environmental consultant to review its energy use. Suggestions included using fewer fluorescent lights and making sure teachers do not have small refrigerators in their classrooms. According to Hamilton, the consultant found that through such measures the district could save about $10,000 each month in utility costs. Hamilton also addressed making salary cuts versus eliminating days. If just salaries are trimmed, few people feel the impact of the cuts. If, however, salaries are reduced by eliminating days, the effect will be broader. Hamilton hopes that if days were cut, that could force people to consider changing the state’s school funding approach. Hamilton said she cared for her students but, “the community has to feel it. We need to have a sustainable funding model.”

A 22-year teaching veteran, Kathy Eddy teaches fifth grade and said she has hit the limit in step raises. In the district’s latest proposal, no step increases would be paid, something Eddy said puts too heavy a burden on the younger teachers who could receive those raises. “I cannot support that decision,” said Eddy, who suggested the district also consider cutting principals at the elementary level. After about a dozen teachers spoke, Judy Newman, the Redmond Education Association’s president, thanked the board for allowing teachers to speak. “These are real people, real situations, real needs,” Newman said. “Our intent was never to come here and intimidate.”

Victor Cline, Chris Peterson and Bill Marshall drill test holes into Ochoco Dam to test the strength of its foundation on Wednesday.

Ochoco Continued from A1 “Since that time, there’s been more knowledge gained on the Cascadia Subduction Zone, it’s potential strength and the duration of the earthquake,” he said. “As we go through our dam safety program and reevaluate our structures, we reevaluate them for updated seismic loading conditions.” The first step is to conduct tests to determine the strength of the dam, he said, and then update the analysis of seismic hazard using what scientists know about the Cascadia Subduction Zone as well as what happened recently in Japan. “We hope to be able to compare actual earthquake records that we obtain from the Japanese,” he said.

Obesity and the U.S. workplace 1 in 2 In 1960: Americans had a job that was physically active. Half of all jobs required moderate physical activity. 1 in 5 Today: Americans achieves a relatively high level of physical activity at work. Only 20 percent of jobs require moderate physical activity. An estimated 1 in 3 Americans is obese.

can College of Sports Medicine and an exercise researcher at Arizona State University. “I think occupational activity is part of that missing puzzle that is so difficult to measure, and is probably contributing to the inactivity and creeping obesity that we’re seeing over time.” For years, the role that physical activity has played in the obesity problem has been uncertain. Numerous studies suggest there has been little change in the average amount of leisure-time physical activity, posing a conundrum for researchers trying to explain the country’s steady weight gain. As a result, much of the focus has been on the rise of fast-food and soft drink consumption. Other studies have suggested that changing commuting habits, declining reliance on public transportation and even increased time in front of the television have played a role in the fattening of America. But none of those issues can fully explain the complex changes in nationwide weight-gain patterns. Some earlier research has hinted at the fact that workplace physical activity is associated with weight and health. One seminal set of studies of London bus drivers and conductors showed that the sedentary bus drivers had higher rates of heart disease than the ticket takers, who moved around during the workday. Church said that during a talk on the country’s obesity patterns, he was struck by Mississippi and Wisconsin both having high rates of obesity, despite having little in common in terms of demographics, education or even weather. It occurred to him that both states had waning agricultural econo-

Nearby Bowman Dam, at the base of Prineville Reservoir, isn’t as likely to be a problem because it’s newer and well-compacted, he said. And the Bureau of Reclamation doesn’t know yet if Ochoco Dam would have problems if the Cascadia fault goes, he said, which is why the study is ongoing. Ochoco Irrigation District operates the dam, and district manager Mike Kasberger said the Bureau of Reclamation is taking the lead on the project. “What we hope is that it is able to withstand these forces without any detrimental effects,” he said. “We don’t expect to find anything any different, this is a routine endeavor.” Kate Ramsayer can be reached at 541-617-7811 or at kramsayer@bendbulletin.com.

mies, prompting him to begin exploring the link between changes in the labor force and declines in workplace physical activity. He discovered that a decline in farming jobs alone could not explain increasing obesity and began exploring job shifts over several decades. Using computer models, Church and colleagues assigned metabolic equivalent values to various job categories and then calculated changes in caloric expenditure at work from 1960 to 2008. “You see the manufacturing jobs plummet and realize that’s a lot of physical activity,” Church said. “It’s very obvious that the jobs that required a lot of physical activity have gone away.” Ross Brownson, an epidemiologist at Washington University in St. Louis, said that both health professionals and the public needed to broaden the traditional definition of physical activity as something that occurred during planned exercise, like running or working out at the gym. “We need to think about physical activity as a more robust concept than just recreational physical activity,” said Brownson, whose 2005 report on declining physical activity in the workplace is cited in the PLoS One report. “In many ways we’ve engineered physical activity out of our lives, so we’ve got to find ways to put it back into our lives, like taking walks during breaks or having opportunities for activity that are more routine to our daily lives, not just going to the health club.” Researchers said it was unlikely that the lost physical activity could ever be fully restored to the workplace, but employers do have the power to increase the physical activity of their employees by offering subsidized gym memberships or incentives to use public transit. Some companies have set up standing workstations, and marketers now offer treadmill-style desks. Employers can also redesign offices to encourage walking, by placing printers away from desks and encouraging face-to-face communication, rather than e-mail. “The activity we get at work has to be intentional,” Ainsworth said. “When people think of obesity they always think of food first, and that’s one side of it, but it’s high time to look at the amount of time we spend inactive at work.”

Teachers Continued from A1 The school board made few comments in response to the short speeches given by teachers. At the beginning of the meeting, board Chairman Jim Erickson said board members would listen to the comments but were not going to negotiate. Negotiating the budget, he said, was the work of others in the district. “We appreciate you,” Erickson said. “It’s not our choice we’re in this situation. … I trust in the good hearts of the folks who are sitting around the (bargaining) table.” The district must look to every corner of its operations to cut costs, said Renee Hamilton, a teacher at Redmond High School’s Hartman Campus.

After 25 seasons, Oprah bids farewell, for now By Alessandra Stanley New York Times News Service

Kathy Kmonicek / New York Times News Service

Yan Leyfman, who will graduate summa cum laude from Stony Brook University today, prepares to examine colon cancer stem cells under a microscope in a chemistry lab at the university, in Stony Brook, N.Y. Leyfman was born in Belarus three years after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster and plagued by health problems as a child. He is devoting his efforts to finding a cure for the disease.

With Chernobyl behind him, student takes on cancer cells

of his mentor, Galina Botchkina, an associate professor of research in the pathology department. He has isolated and studied cancer stem cells, which are responsible for a cancer’s spread and are highly resistant to drug and radiation therapy. And he has helped conduct experiments using a drug that shows promise toward stripping the cells of some of their power. Botchkina, who emigrated from Russia herself 22 years ago, lost her mother to colon cancer in 2007. That, she said, prompted her to change her focus to colon and prostate cancer stem cells. Once, she said, Leyfman helped analyze thousands of genes, to better understand different cancer stem cell populations. “It was a very important, big piece of work,” she said. Leyfman plans to apply to medical school in a year, but first hopes to find work in another stem cell laboratory to gain more experience. The earthquake and tsunami in Japan in March and the ensuing nuclear disaster have revived difficult memories for Leyfman. Most of the radiation from Chernobyl actually drifted into Belarussian territory from neighboring Ukraine and contaminated the food supply for years. “I could relate to these people,” Leyfman said. “I still remember lying in the white hospital rooms and crying in pain. In Russia, there were no warnings. Every-

thing was kept secret.” In a phone interview, his mother, Sima Leyfman, recalled her despair at watching her son suffer, and the fruitless search for answers at one hospital after another. “He would scream all night because he was so itchy,” she said. “He’d go to sleep at night and wake up the next day and his arm would be twice its normal size. They said it was food allergies.” Finally, one physician told her to take the boy “as far away as possible” in the hope that he might survive. “At that time, the meat that was sold was just bones with tiny swabs of meat,” she said. “One of the doctors who saw Yan told us to get out and never come back.” Leyfman has impressed professors, administrators and scientists at Stony Brook and elsewhere. As a sophomore, he received the prestigious Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship, awarded to undergraduates planning careers in math, science or engineering. At an awards ceremony Tuesday, he received the Provost’s Award for Academic Excellence, from Stony Brook, and the Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence, from the SUNY system. Administrators were especially struck by his single-mindedness in bringing the annual Sigma Xi Northeastern Research Symposium to Stony Brook in April. He enlisted other students to help organize the conference and personally invited the three keynote speakers: Paul Greengard, a neuroscientist and Nobel laureate; John Marburger III, the science adviser to President George W. Bush; and Grigori Enikolopov of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. “There are few individuals who could conceive of the conference and execute it, and he did it to perfection,” Stein said. “Yan has this way about him where you can’t say no. It’s a persistence and a charm.”

haul, including Medicare spending cuts, that Democrats passed in the last Congress. But Democrats, hopeful that the Medicare fight is a path to a political turnabout, are clinging to the recent developments like koalas to eucalyptus trees, insisting that the New York race was, as Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., said, “a bellwether for elections to come.” Three of the Republicans senators who voted against the House plan on Wednesday are moderates from Northeastern states: Scott Brown of Massachusetts and Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe of Maine. A fourth, Lisa Murkowski, won re-election in November as a write-in candidate after being defeated in the Republican primary. The fifth, Rand Paul of Kentucky, voted no on the ground that the House plan, drafted by Rep. Paul Ryan, the chairman of the Budget Committee, took too long to pay down the national debt. Candidates looking to shore up their conservative bona fides among Republican presidential primary voters, like Jon Huntsman, a former governor of Utah, have praised the plan. Some congressional incumbents, like Snowe, weighed the respective threats of Tea Party primary challengers against the wrath of

moderate or elderly voters, and decided not to support it. Some presidential candidates seeking to appeal to a broader base, like former Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, are trying to split the difference, saying that the plan is OK but that they will offer their own that will be even more refined. Others still, like George Allen, a Republican candidate for Senate in Virginia, appear to be trying to figure out where the political minefields are, and refuse to say if they support the plan or not. Just as each candidate must take a measure of his own race, the party’s response is also driven by circumstances. Newt Gingrich, a presidential candidate who seemed to think he had the gravitas to walk his party back from an increasingly toxic issue, denounced the plan to great retribution from both the establishment and Tea Party wings, and had to recant. Brown, who is running for re-election in a tough state, said he would vote against the plan but was greeted largely by silence within his party. But Democrats by no means have a smooth course, either. While the president has tried to set parameters for budget negotiations, his party has yet to settle on a plan for Medicare or the broader budget issues.

STONY BROOK, N.Y. — Yan Leyfman was born in Belarus in 1989, three years after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. His family lived only about 75 miles from the nuclear plant, and as a toddler, Leyfman had a constellation of mysterious symptoms: cysts that covered his entire body, fingernails that fell out, limbs that were swollen and skin that itched torturously. Though he recovered his health after moving to Brooklyn at age 5, Chernobyl still followed him. Doctors have said it is probably the culprit behind the lymphoma that his mother developed two years ago, and all along, it has spurred his academic interests. Today, Leyfman, 21, will graduate summa cum laude from Stony Brook University on Long Island, where he has spent every semester in a laboratory researching cancer stem cells. He is propelled by nothing less than the desire to cure the disease. “I made a promise to myself that I would not lose my mom and that I would do everything in my power to save her,” he said. “Ultimately, at the end of the day, the most important thing is human life.” While completing a degree in biology this spring, Leyfman also found time to organize a student research symposium at Stony Brook, part of the State University of New York, and initiate a lecture series, Pioneers in the Field. Over the years, he has presented research at more than a dozen meetings and collaborated on scientific papers. “I have faith that Yan is going to make some great discoveries in his lifetime,” said Jerrold Stein, associate vice president for student affairs and dean of students. “He’s personally motivated to see if he can conquer cancer. He’s driven.” To that end, Leyfman has spent numerous hours in the lab

Medicare Continued from A1 The House Republican Medicare plan would convert it into a subsidized program for the private insurance market. When they proposed it last month as the centerpiece of their budget plan, Republicans were confident that the political winds were at their backs. But the last six weeks have left Republicans pointed into a something more like a headwind. With polls and angry town hall meetings suggesting that many voters were wary of a Medicare overhaul if not opposed, party unity and optimism have given way to a bit of a Republican-onRepublican rumpus. House leaders have made clear they will not try to pass Medicare legislation this year. Some Republican candidates and elected officials have moved to distance themselves from the plan, even as others remain in chin-out defense of it and others still are declining to commit one way or another. In the wake of the Democratic victory, many House Republicans argued that Democrats had no credible plan of their own to assure the long-term survival of Medicare, and reprised their criticism of the health care over-

The surprise was that at long last there weren’t any more surprises. Oprah Winfrey took her final bow Wednesday by holding back. “There will be no makeovers, no surprises — really, no surprises,” she told her studio audience. “You will not be getting a car or a tree. This last hour is really about me saying thank you.” And Winfrey did exactly that in a valedictory monologue that was something between a graduation address and a Sunday homily, praising God and her fans for her success and exhorting viewers to “connect, embrace, liberate, love somebody, just one person and then spread that to two and as many as you can.” And the lack of ceremony, the absence of celebrities, goody bags or confetti was less a letdown than a relief after the star-studded, two-part Oprahfest Monday and Tuesday at the United Center in Chicago, a Pharaonic tribute that capped what was already a season-long elegy to the star of the “The

The state uses that money to leverage federal Medicaid money. For every $1 the state spends on Medicaid, the federal government matches it with $1.60. The $1 goes back to the hospital system. The 60 cents goes toward helping cover revenue shortfalls in the Medicaid program, according to information from the Oregon Health Authority. So, hospital providers will see their tax dollars again and those who take Medicaid will

Oprah Winfrey Show.” Winfrey called the tribute a “love intervention on steroids.” And come to think of it, there hadn’t been such an over-the-top display of self-celebration since 2005, when Winfrey released a six-disc DVD collection of her greatest moments, timed to the 20th anniversary of her syndicated show — unless it was her 50th birthday celebration in 2004, which featured 2,000 roses, a 400-pound cake and testimonials from the likes of John Travolta and Nelson Mandela. Winfrey’s last show was a lot more like the first nationally syndicated episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in 1986, when the young woman who overcame an abusive, deprived childhood was only beginning to be known but had already developed a messianic streak. Winfrey showed a clip of that maiden appearance, in which she explained, “This show always allows people, hopefully, to understand the power they have to change their own lives.” For her final farewell Winfrey chose to separate the two

contradictory strands — spiritual guide and show-business diva — that are the alchemy of her success. Inconsistencies are the core of her improbable, inimitable career. There is no one like her partly because she is never less than two opposite things at once, Hollywood royalty and star-struck commoner, entertainer and confessor, profit seeker and prophet. Winfrey was a tycoon and also a tastemaker whose endorsement made the fortunes of housewives, authors, singers and even presidential candidates. She built schools, rescued abused children and hawked beauty treatments, sometimes all in the same show. Winfrey could move from high literature to lowly undergarments in a heartbeat. Winfrey closed with these words: “I won’t say goodbye. I’ll just say ‘until we meet again.’ To God be the glory.” And she has spent her last days — and her entire 25th season — not so much bidding farewell as coaxing viewers to follow her to her next project, her cable network, OWN.

receive additional funds to help alleviate the proposed cuts. The end result, said Tina Kotek, D-Portland, who also worked on reaching the bipartisan agreement, is about 60,000 low-income Oregonians keeping their health care coverage. “It’s an equitable package and it solves some of our budget concerns,” Kotek said. The plan reduces the governor’s proposed cuts to the Medicaid program from 19 percent to about 11.5 percent. The change would go into effect for the 2011-13 budget. The governor released a statement saying the provider tax “stabilizes Oregon’s health care system.” The governor is working to transform the health care system; this plan will help stave off cuts while more efficiencies

are found later when the system is overhauled. Because the tax already exists, lawmakers did not have to vote on the idea. Despite months of negotiations, Kotek said she anticipates not everyone will be happy. In particular, she said, the Oregon Association of Hospitals and Health Systems might not agree with all the changes. Officials from the association declined to comment on the lawmaker’s announcement until the association’s Board of Trustees meeting Wednesday night. Hospital officials at St. Charles were not available for comment Wednesday. Lauren Dake can be reached at 541-419-8074 or at ldake@bendbulletin.com.

House prices fall in Bend area Bend-area home prices dropped about 4.5 percent in the first three months of the year over the fourth quarter of 2010, according to federal housing data released Wednesday. Year over year, prices in the Bend Metropolitan Statistical Area, which covers all of Deschutes County, fell 8.4 percent in the first quarter, compared with the first quarter of 2010, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s House Price Index report. Other metropolitan statistical areas across the nation experienced greater declines in year-over-year home prices, however. For the first time in seven quarters, the Bend area did not make the list of 20 MSAs with the lowest rates of price appreciation. The Bend MSA ranked 288 out of 309, according to the report. Nationally, the index fell a seasonally adjusted 2.5 percent in the first quarter, the largest quarterly decline since the fourth quarter of 2008.

Joseph Barker plans to open Solstice Brewing Co. on North Main Street in Prineville in July. A five- or seven-barrel brew system should be operational by the end of the year.

OLCC to penalize Bend’s Boondocks

After deciding Bend was a bit brew-heavy, Portland resident found ideal spot downtown By Jordan Novet The Bulletin

Joseph Barker wants his soon-to-open Solstice Brewing Co. to put Prineville on the Central Oregon brewery map. Barker, 31, has brewed beer at home in Portland for more than a decade, after learning from an elder at a church he’d attended. “I was doing a lot of … home brewing and brewing beers for friends, birthday parties and weddings,” Barker said Wednesday. After a few years of doing

that, he said he thought, “Wow, I really wish I could do this as an occupation.” At the beginning of May, Barker signed a lease for a 4,100-square-foot space in downtown Prineville. He aims to open in time for the Fourth of July with a selection of pub fare made on site and beers from Central Oregon breweries. A five- or seven-barrel brew system should be up and running by year’s end, Barker said, effectively putting the word “brewing” in Solstice Brewing Co. He estimates Solstice would produce

about 600 barrels in its first year, but he said the brewery could pump out around 1,100 barrels a year a few years from now. He said he wants to reserve about 90 percent of the beer output for people who come by Solstice. The rest can be for wholesale distribution, mostly in Prineville. The story of how Barker, a La Grande native, settled on Prineville highlights the current state of the Central Oregon brewery scene. Barker started looking for the right place about two years ago, he said. He ruled out opening a brewery and brewpub in Portland because he felt leasing costs would’ve been too high, and the city already had plenty of brewpubs. See Solstice / B2

Martha Stewart is trying to cook up a deal. Shares of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia surged nearly 24 percent on Wednesday after the struggling media and merchandising company put itself in play, announcing that it had retained advisers to explore a sale of the company. Blackstone Advisory Partners, the investment banking arm of the Blackstone Group, was hired to “review and respond” to investors who have expressed an interest in investing in the business. Still, people briefed on the matter say there are no offers on the table. The decision to test the waters comes as Stewart, who turns 70 in August, is about to resume a more official role at the company. She will rejoin the company’s board after a five-year ban on her serving as an officer or director at a public company expires. The Securities and Exchange Commission imposed the ban in August 2006 when it settled a civil case against Stewart, who was convicted in March of 2004 and was sentenced to prison for lying to federal investigators about a stock sale. Any acquisition would have to go through Stewart, who founded the company in 1996 and now owns about half of its stock and 90 percent of its voting shares. In a telephone interview, Stewart played down a possible sale and instead highlighted her company’s growth potential. See Stewart / B5

New fuel Coffee drinkers face more price increases economy stickers will give cost estimates By Matt Andrejczak MarketWatch

SAN FRANCISCO — Coffee drinkers are facing another round of price increases as Starbucks, J.M. Smucker and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters pass along the rising costs of beans. Starbucks confirmed Wednesday it will raise the prices for bagged coffee sold at its U.S stores by 17 percent, and 6 percent at its Canadian locations, effective July 12. Its move comes a

day after J.M. Smucker raised prices for the fourth time in the past year. Smucker, which sells Folgers, Dunkin Donuts and Millstone, is upping those prices by 11 percent. Since May 2010, Smucker has jacked up prices 34 percent to try to stay a step ahead of the commodities market. Starbucks is raising prices for a 12-ounce bag of coffee at its U.S. stores to a range of $11.95 to $14.95. It is the first price increase since September 2009. The last time Star-

bucks raised prices for bagged coffee at its Canadian locations was in October 2007. The Seattle company last year raised prices for some of its drinks to counter rising costs for milk and unroasted beans. Green Mountain said May 3 it’s raising prices by 10 percent. That comes after an increase last fall of 10 percent to 15 percent on K-Cup portion packs used in the company’s Keurig singlecup coffee brewer. Over the past 12 months, coffee contract prices for Arabica beans are up 99 percent on the IntercontinentalExchange.

Crescent restaurant with long history, eclectic collections is seeking a buyer By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

Walking into the Mohawk Restaurant and Lounge in Crescent is like stepping through a time portal into a 1930s hunting lodge: Just about every wild creature to ever roam or fly across Oregon — from bison, cougars and wolverines to pheasants, hawks and a golden eagle — are preserved by taxidermy and mounted on the knotty pine walls. It started out as a hole-in-the-wall tavern, built along the old military stage coach road in 1933 after prohibition ended, one block east of its present location. The restaurant was added in 1946 when the tavern was moved west to make way for Highway 97, and the original building was combined with the local Grange hall, according to Brian and Cindy Koch. They purchased the Mohawk in 2001 from Cindy’s parents, Ken and Marge Curbow, who bought it in 1984 and

The Kochs said the Crescent area was a great place to work, live and raise a family, but with their sons graduating from nearby Gilchrist High School over the next three years, they’re looking for a buyer for the Mohawk. “We had it listed for the last couple of years with no luck, so we dropped the listing,” said Cindy, who turned 44 this year and has been working at the Mohawk off an on in one capacity or another since she was 17.

WASHINGTON — The federal government unveiled new fuel economy window stickers Wednesday, for vehicles starting with the 2013 model year, that for the first time include estimated annual fuel costs and the vehicle’s overall environmental impact. The labels, which replace a 5-year-old design that provided only basic information about estimated fuel economy, represent the broadest overhaul in the sticker program’s 35-year history. There will be different labels for conventional vehicles, plug-in hybrids and all-electric vehicles. The Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Transportation, which are jointly responsible for the sticker program, rejected a radically different design that would have prominently displayed a letter grade from A to D comparing a given vehicle’s fuel economy and air pollution to those of the entire fleet of new cars. Automakers objected to that sticker as simplistic and potentially misleading. The government instead adopted a much busier label with more information and a sliding scale comparing vehicles across classes. See Fuel / B2

SEC approves whistle-blower rules providing incentives for information By Edward Wyatt New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — A divided Securities and Exchange Commission approved rules Wednesday to create a $300 million whistle-blower program. Supporters of the program said it would help the agency crack down on wrongdoing, but opponents contend it would actually hamper the ability of companies to police themselves. The final rules, which were approved by a 3-2 vote, included several changes from rules first proposed by the SEC last year after passage of the Dodd-Frank regulatory law that provided for the program. One of the changes included a potential bonus if corporate employees first report suspected wrongdoing through their company’s internal compliance system. Business groups worried that bypassing internal reporting procedures would undercut the multimillion-dollar investments they have made to strengthen their compliance departments in response to tougher post-Enron corporate rules and laws, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. But the new rules still drew complaints as opponents contended that the program would still require a whistle-blower to report wrongdoing to the SEC as well as to a company’s internal systems in order to guarantee eligibility for a reward. Mary Schapiro, the SEC chairwoman, said the rules were important to the agency because it has limited resources and therefore needs “to be able to leverage the resources of people who may have first-hand information about potential violations.” The whistle-blower provisions were crafted partly in response to the agency’s failure to catch Bernard Madoff’s Ponzi scheme and other similar frauds. Previously, the SEC had authority only to reward tipsters in insider trading cases and was limited to paying 10 percent of the penalties collected. The new rules provide for payment of 10 to 30 percent of the collected amount when the sanctions imposed by regulators exceed $1 million.

Continued from B1 Friends suggested Bend as a possible site for a location, but it didn’t seem right for Solstice, either. “There’s about 10 little brew places going, and there’s only 80,000 people,” Barker said. “I’m not positive if Bend needs another place, you know?” Friends from Prineville begged him to consider their city, he said. He spent a weekend in the city, with low expectations. But Prineville turned out to have just the right spot, on North Main Street, between the Pine Theater and the expanding Bowman Museum. The Main Street Saloon, equipped with a kitchen and a bar, had closed, leaving a vacant space that was not too big or too small. In addition, Barker said, craft beer availability in Prineville is limited. “There’s a lot of Coors and Bud(weiser) out there,” Barker said. For now, Barker said he and the other owners of Solstice — he is the majority owner, he said — are planning to offer an imperial India pale ale, brown and blonde ales, stouts and a honey-wheat beer. The idea is not to be particularly experimental. But as time goes by, he said, he would like to introduce more unique brews, as locals and others catch on to what Sol-

Fuel Continued from B1 “These labels will provide consumers with up-front information about a vehicle’s fuel costs and savings so that they can make informed decisions when purchasing a new car,” said Ray LaHood, the transportation secretary. The stickers will for the first time include a greenhouse gas rating, comparing a vehicle’s emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases with those of all other vehicles, as well as a smog rating based on emissions of other air pollutants such as nitrogen oxide and particulates. Cars capable of running on electricity will get the highest greenhouse gas and smog ratings, but the fine print indicates that the measure does not take into account emissions from power plants generating the electricity used to charge the vehicle. Stickers for plug-in hybrids and electric cars will also include their charging time and estimated range while running in electric-only mode. Gloria Bergquist, vice president for public affairs at the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, said the government was right to leave power plant emissions out of its ratings for electric vehicles. “Upstream emissions raise a complex mix of factors that auto manufacturers have no way of predicting or controlling, including the electric energy mix of a particular geographic region, and how much — or in what manner — vehicles are driven,” she said in a statement. The labels will include an estimated annual fuel cost based

stice will be doing. “We have to train the local palate, so to speak,” he said. With financial support from friends and family members, Barker started work on the facility this month. Other improvements will come in the next few weeks. More employees should come, too, with employment topping out between 10 and 20. Bill Gowen, CEO of the Prineville-Crook County Chamber of Commerce, said Solstice will be the first brewery to open in Prineville. He said he could see the appearance of Solstice inspiring other home brewers to consider opening a brewery in the city. For now, though, he and others are excited about Solstice opening soon, he said. “We do have other facilities in town that offer a wide variety of different kinds of beers, but a brewpub is a whole different critter altogether,” Gowen said. Jason Carr, manager of the Prineville and Crook County economic development program for Economic Development for Central Oregon, said the addition of a brewpub to Prineville will cut down on the number of people who leave the city and head to Redmond or Bend to drink at that kind of institution.

on 15,000 miles traveled at a fuel price of $3.70 per gallon as well as an estimate of how much more or less the vehicle will cost to operate over five years than an average new vehicle. In addition to the familiar city, highway and combined fuel economy estimates expressed in mpg, the sticker will include an estimate of how much fuel the vehicle will need to travel 100 miles. The EPA said the new gallons-per-mile metric, combined with the estimated fuel costs, would provide consumers a more accurate measure of efficiency and expense than the traditional miles-per-gallon figure, which rarely reflects real-world driving conditions. The gasoline price is based on Department of Energy surveys and calculations and will typically be updated annually, the EPA said. The label will also include a QR Code that can be scanned by a smartphone to obtain cost estimates based on a consumer’s driving habits and the price of gasoline and electricity where he or she lives, as well as comparisons with other vehicles. Such calculators will also be accessible online. The National Automobile Dealers Association welcomed the new design and said it was relieved that the federal government had rejected the letter grade label. “For decades, car and truck buyers have relied on miles per gallon — or mpg — to compare the fuel economy of different vehicles,” the association said in a statement. “NADA applauds the Obama administration’s decision to drop the illadvised ‘letter grade’ in favor of one that prominently displays a vehicle’s mpg.”

P F Financial aid falls behind college costs

Robert Cohen / St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Jessica Cox holds her daughter, Samantha Byndom, before heading backstage for her graduation ceremony at the University of Missouri-St. Louis earlier this month. Cox juggled being a single parent with her school work along with two work study jobs.

By Tim Barker St. Louis Post-Dispatch

ST. LOUIS — With high school graduation less than a month away, Angelina Eutimio is still looking for $7,000. That’s how much money the 18-year-old from Dittmer, Mo., needs to fill in the gap between her financial aid and the cost of a year at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Eutimio plans to pursue a degree in education, with the eventual goal of becoming a high school principal. Maybe even a superintendent. She’s hoping to find a few more scholarships to help her get there. But in the end, she figures there’s a lot of borrowing in her future. “Everyone worries about taking out loans,” Eutimio said. “I know it’s going to be hard to pay it all back, but I’ll make it work.” Such is life for students faced with today’s higher-education dynamic: The price of school rises every year; financial aid doesn’t keep pace. To get a sense of how this plays out on college campuses, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch examined several nearby universities to see how students with the highest level of need are being affected. The paper looked at the gap between financial aid and the cost of schooling for a freshman. Aid included all need-based grants and a part-time work-study job. The costs included tuition, books, housing, food, transportation and miscellaneous expenses. At most of the schools, that gap grew considerably over the last five years. Consider the case of a freshman entering the University of Missouri-Columbia in 2006 who qualified for the maximum level of grant and work-study aid. That student would have needed to come up with another $7,270 through loans, scholarships or a second job. For a freshman enrolling this fall, that gap has grown to an estimated $12,724. Among others, the gap at the University of Missouri-St. Louis has grown to $15,388, up from $13,232. And at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, it has grown to $6,019, up from $2,361. It’s a troubling trend in the eyes of college finance experts, who fear the cost of a degree may already be too high for some students. And there’s no reason to think the trend will reverse itself. Even now, the government is talking about cutting Pell Grants — a key funding tool for low-income students. And most states are slashing higher education spending as they grapple with budget woes. “The trend is going to get worse,” said Mark Kantrowitz, financial aid expert and publisher of FinAid.org. “The gap this year is going to be growing faster than ever before.”

Painful cuts The cuts have been even more severe for schools like the Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, where enrollment has been boosted in recent years because of a pair of federal aid programs aimed at attracting low-income students

“Oh, yeah. (My student loan debt) troubles me. That’s like half a house.” — Jessica Cox, 27, student to math and science fields. Both programs were cut during recent federal belt-tightening, meaning a loss of nearly $10,000 for the neediest students pursuing degrees such as engineering. Kantrowitz and others worry about the impact such cuts will have on students from families lacking substantial resources. They see more students like Melisa Betts, 23, of St. Louis, who will graduate from UM-Columbia in December with a degree in architectural studies. She has no complaints about her choice of schools, but it’s not really where she wanted to go. “My first choice was actually Texas, but that would have been way more expensive,” Betts said. Rising costs are forcing students like Betts to alter their thinking and goals. Some will be forced to shift to second and third choices. Some may end up at two-year schools or skip college altogether. “There are more students who will end up at two-year institutions, not because it’s the best fit for them, but because it’s all they can afford,” said Faith Sandler, executive director of the Scholarship Foundation of St. Louis.

Loan necessity It’s a marked change from the 1990s, when students could count on federal and state aid to offset a higher percentage of college costs. That was a time when low-income students could make it through college largely on the strength of a Pell Grant and state aid, said Terri Harfst, interim director of financial aid at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. The college is one of the few in the region that has actually been able to narrow the gap between financial aid and the cost of college from 2006 to 2011. They have done it through institutional aid — or tuition discounting for the neediest students. Still, the impact of rising costs are felt throughout the student body. As costs have risen, so, too, has the amount of money that families with moderate incomes are expected to contribute to their kids’ schooling. A family with an income of $40,000 to $60,000, for example, might be asked to pitch in $6,000 a year. “Most people are in the position where they don’t have that kind of liquidity,” Harfst said. And that, invariably, means loans. Jessica Cox, 27, isn’t exactly a traditional college student. With a 4-year-old daughter and a history that includes an unproductive stay at a local for-profit college, Cox has been forced to borrow heavily to stay on track as she graduated this month from UM-St. Louis with a degree in criminology. The ink has yet to dry on her

diploma — and already she’s thinking about the prospects of repaying the $60,000 to $70,000 worth of loans she’ll take with her. “Oh, yeah. It troubles me,” Cox said. “That’s like half a house.” A report last year by the Project on Student Debt showed that 2009 graduates carried an average of $24,000 in debt, the highest level ever. Three years earlier, the same group estimated student debt at just over $21,000.

Schools stepping up Even as students face the prospect of rising costs, schools are doing what they can to offset the financial hardships brought on by tough economic times. Washington University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are among some 60 schools nationally that have made pledges to reduce student debt with substantial institutional aid offerings to needy students. St. Louis University has increased its institutional aid budget from $51 million to $77 million over the last five years, providing as much as $22,400 in need-based aid through its SLU Grant. The university has also established an emergency scholarship fund and an internal student loan program to help current students who find themselves with unexpected financial troubles — a parent’s job loss, for example. “For students to afford a SLU education, the institution has to be willing to support that,” said Cari Wickliffe, director of student financial services. There has been a similar push at UM-Columbia in recent years, with the school’s financial aid budget increasing from $31.7 million in 2006 to an estimated $43.2 million next year. That fund includes some $2.7 million set aside from the recently approved tuition increase to help students with financial needs, said Jim Brooks, director of student financial aid at UM-Columbia. Still, from 2006 to 2010, the percentage of students borrowing money increased from 46 percent to 52 percent.

A matter of time? But while no one in the financial aid community thinks students have it easy today, Brooks stops well short of proclaiming a crisis in Columbia. “I’ve not had any Missouri residents say we are priced out of what they can afford,” Brooks said. If not, it’s just a matter of time, some financial experts say. Kevin Walker is chief executive officer at SimpleTuition, a Web-based planning site. He has been studying the financial trends on the nation’s campuses for years. He’s surprised that enrollment has been skyrocketing in spite of an ever-worsening financial equation. “At some point, it’s got to be too expensive,” Walker said. “I keep thinking this is going to be the year that we reach the tipping point. We have to be close.”

For retirees, a new mortgage can be difficult to obtain, afford By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA — The road to retirement can be paved with good intentions — such as paying down the mortgage faster so that, by the last day on the job, your house really is all yours. With millions of homeowners struggling to make even regular mortgage payments these days, an accelerated payoff goal may seem beyond reach. Yet many financial planners still advise debt-free retirement — including freedom from mortgage payments. Why? So you’ll require less income to support yourself during retirement, says certified public accountant and financial planner Jacquelyn Basso, of Jacquelyn M. Basso & Associates of Downingtown, Pa. “You are on a fixed income, and earn less than when you worked, and cannot spend more than you make,” she said of the typical retiree. “So removing the mortgage from the equation can make life easier.” Not all retirees have the vast assets that financial planners recommend to help make it through comfortably, though. And, Basso said, many retirees who want to downsize to smaller homes have found that they don’t have as much equity as they thought to exchange their current homes for new ones. These retirees are opting to take on new mortgages, rather than tap into savings or investments that might be needed over the long term. Even then, Basso said, changes in the rules require borrowers to come up with bigger down payments — 20 percent rather than the zero percent of housing’s boom times. “That finds many taking what they need out of their nest eggs,

the money they need to live on,” she said. Consider these questions beforehand, AARP recommends: Will you be able to afford a new mortgage payment, as well as utilities, maintenance, and insurance on your home, after you retire, when your income will probably go down? Will having a mortgage offer you a significant tax deduction?

Loans elusive Some retirees say they are having trouble getting mortgages, even with a guaranteed income and the highest credit scores. But New Jersey builder Bruce Paparone said he checked with other builders, including one with two over-55 communities, and a mortgage broker he deals with, and “they have not had any issues with financing the senior market.” Philip Cassidy, of Sun Home Loans in Trevose, Pa., said many newly retired people may be having problems because they cannot yet “zero in” on an exact amount of income to take as necessary living expenses. When asked to report the amount of income, he said, they estimate low, and that hurts their mortgage qualification. Age is not the issue. “We cannot, do not and will not discriminate based on age,” said Philadelphia mortgage broker Fred Glick. “Even a 90-yearold can get a 30-year mortgage.” Still, whether you are a 35year-old couple with high-paying jobs or retirees with great credit and fixed incomes, “getting a mortgage these days is more cumbersome than it used to be,” said Jerome Scarpello, of Leo Mortgage in Ambler, Pa. “People with poor credit may

not have any options, and even good, qualified borrowers are going through additional questioning,” Scarpello said. In other words, don’t take it personally if you are raked over the coals. Lenders are taking no chances and don’t want to end up having to buy back your mortgage because their investors find something incomplete in the loan file. As a result, borrowers can expect “detailed tracing of their assets, closer scrutiny of the stability of their income, and more conservative appraisals,” Scarpello said. Qualified borrowers will get their loans, he said. “They just may need to explain large deposits, will not need ‘bonus income’ to qualify, and need to be prepared to document their finances.”

Making a plan To prepare for retirement, and the possibility you may need to carry a mortgage, you need to have a financial plan to establish priorities to give you some room to breathe more easily, Basso said. “Get rid of the bad debt,” she said, especially any high-interest credit-card debt. And if you cannot pay off your current mortgage, try to refinance it at today’s lower rates at a shorter term. Basso said one of her clients told her he was doing just that, refinancing a 30-year mortgage to a 10-year “and saving a lot of interest.” “You have to look at your cash flow and how well you can manage your debt before you decide whether or not to get a mortgage,” she said. “There are so many things to think about. But first you need a plan.”

Continued from B1 “The first priority is to reset the strategy,” she said. “Our brand is way, way stronger than the company is big.” She said that she has also retained Alan Schwartz of Guggenheim Partners to weigh any potential opportunities alongside Blackstone. Schwartz, a prominent mergers-and-acquisitions banker, is the former chief executive of Bear Stearns. The company, which has had considerable turnover in its executive suite over the last several years, appointed Lisa Gersh its president and chief operating officer on Wednesday. Gersh, a co-founder of Oxygen Media, a cable television channel aimed at women, is expected to assume the chief executive post within the next 12 to 20 months, the company said. The chief executive job has been vacant since 2008, when Susan Lyne, a well-known media executive, left Martha Stewart to take the top job at the Gilt Group, a fast-growing online retailer. Charles Koppelman, the company’s executive chairman, said Wednesday that the company had left the chief executive’s post open for Stewart “if and when she decided to return.” Stewart said she had decided not to take the chief executive’s post because she had enough to do keeping up with her television shows, cookbooks and public appearances as the face of the company. “I work seven days a week as it is,” Stewart said. “I can’t do it all.” One possibility could be that Stewart would team up with a buyer and take her company private. Several bankers pointed to Hugh Hefner’s recent acquisition of Playboy as a possible blueprint. In March, Hefner and a private equity firm formed a partnership to purchase his company from shareholders for $200 million. Another option would be to carve up Martha Stewart Living’s assets. Media companies could be interested in its magazine and television assets, while a licensing company could buy the Martha Stewart brand business.

Continued from B1 After all those years working part time after school, then full time, and later owning and running the restaurant and lounge, Cindy and her husband Brian, 45, would like to sell the business and move on. Unfortunately, Cindy said, the slow economy and declining populations in Crescent and Gilchrist make it tough to sell a business. But she’s hopeful the right person will come along and recognize the Mohawk is a special place — a slice of American history akin to a museum, with its huge collection of taxidermied animals and antique bottle collections in a historic building with knotty pine walls. The area around Crescent is known for its forests, lakes, parks, gardens and outdoor recreation opportunities, but despite those assets, the population of Crescent fell from 1,289 to 731 from 2000 to 2010, while Gilchrist’s population dropped from more than 640 to 438, due largely to the area’s shrinking timber industry, according to the Kochs and statistics from the Population Center at Portland State University. Crescent is located along Highway 97, less than 5 miles south of Gilchrist, near the Klamath and Deschutes County border.

The road to Crescent Cindy said the business was a dream come true for her father, but it took awhile for her to adapt to the remote rural setting lacking the shopping malls, movie theaters and other elements of city life she was accustomed to growing up in Puyallup. “My dad drove a delivery truck for Hostess in Puyallup. We called him the ‘Twinkie Man,’” said Cindy. “His dream was to own a business of his own.” An uncle driving through Crescent saw a for sale sign on the Mohawk and called her father, who fell in love with the place and immediately bought it, said Cindy. “I was 17, and I had six weeks left my junior year in

A collection of antique Avon bottles and old figurine whisky bottles attract customers to the Mohawk Restaurant and Lounge in Crescent. high school when my dad bought the Mohawk,” said Cindy. “When we moved here I drove down a couple hours ahead of my parents. I remember seeing the sign for the Gilchrist Mall. I was excited to see they had a mall.” The excitement faded, however, when she turned off Highway 97 to check it out and saw the “mall” consisted of a restaurant, market, pizza parlor, visitors center and cabinet shop. “I sat down on the curb and cried. It didn’t have a Gap, Old Navy or any of the stores like the malls in Puyallup,” said Cindy. “It was culture shock,” she said of the move from Puyallup and a high school with 1,200 students to the tiny town of Crescent and Gilchrist High School, where the enrollment in 1984 was around 130. The Gilchrist Mall has even less today than it did in 1984, with the closing of the pizza parlor, cabinet shop and restaurant. For the first few years in Crescent, Cindy, her sisters Debbie and Jody, Grandpa Curbow and her parents lived upstairs over the Mohawk, which at one time reportedly housed a barbershop and brothel, according to stories relayed to her family by old-timers who frequented the Mohawk, Cindy said. “The guys would go upstairs and come back down with a haircut,” she said. When she was 21, she was working as a waitress and doing a little bartending when Brian, who was 22 at the time, started coming in for lunch and dinner while

he was working on a logging crew for a contract logger out of Roseburg. Within two years, the couple got married. “In those days I figured I could always get a logging job,” Brian said of his decision to quit the Roseburg logging contractor. He put away his overalls and corksoled logging boots and tried working in the restaurant for Cindy’s parents. When that didn’t work out, he took a logging job in Wallowa County, where he and Cindy lived from 1992 to 1998, and where both of their sons were born. In 1998 Cindy’s parents made them an offer to buy the Mohawk that they couldn’t refuse. It took more than two years to complete the deal.

Years of collecting Over the years, the Mohawk has gone through a succession of five owners that the Kochs know of, including the original owner, Red Wilson (1933-1946), followed by Mansey and Irene Biden (19461960), Blackie Milani and wives Helen and Nita (1960-1980), Carl and Clara Doan (1980-1984), Cindy’s parents and then her and Brian. History buffs can find a more detailed history of the Mohawk in a book titled “People, Places and Things in Klamath County,” Cindy said. Animal displays in the restaurant range from bison, wolverine and beaver to wolf, bear, alligators and iguana, as well as a two-

headed lamb and a two-headed calf. “Most of the animals were here when Dad bought the place,” she said. While they don’t know for sure where they came from, the Kochs surmise that previous owner Mansey Biden may have been responsible for most of the animal collection, since he was also a taxidermist. During the time her family has owned the Mohawk, people have donated a black bear hide, a zebra hide, a wolf hide, mounted elk and an anteater, said Cindy. “People come in for the first time and tell us they have been driving Highway 97 for years and never knew all this was in here,” said Cindy. Besides the large collection of stuffed or mounted heads of wildlife and livestock collected and displayed in the restaurant over the decades, the Mohawk restaurant also features a wall-to-wall collection of more than 1,500 antique Avon bottles, whisky bottles depicting loggers, miners, cowboys, hunters, fishermen, athletes and other collectable figurine bottles. “My grandfather was crippled with arthritis, and he enjoyed having the Avon lady come around so much that he collected just about every Avon bottle there was,” said Cindy.

Small-town life With the populations of Crescent and nearby Gilchrist shrinking, the restaurant doesn’t bring in as much business as it once did, so in addition to running the business and keeping the books, the Kochs wind up working long hours taking shifts cooking, waiting tables, or working as cashier, dishwasher and janitor. Despite the economic downturn, the Kochs continue to open the restaurant for fundraising dinners to help sports teams at

Gilchrist High School raise money for new uniforms, and to help student groups such as the Future Business Leaders of America raise money to compete in the National FBLA Leadership Conference June 28 to July 3 in Orlando, Florida. “We have four kids from Gilchrist going back to the national championships in Orlando. To me, that is quite a feat,” Brian Koch said. Today their sons, Taran, 16, and Trinton, 14, are in their sophomore and freshman years at Gilchrist, where enrollment has dropped nearly 50 percent since 1984 and is now less than 70, said Cindy. Both sons work at the restaurant summers and other times when needed, with Taran preferring to cook while Trinton likes raking in the tips waiting tables. But Brian and Cindy said neither one of boys has any interest in taking over the family business. Taran and Trinton said they have enjoyed the advantages of small-town, small-school life, such as the abundance of outdoor recreational activities, riding horses, playing on the school basketball team and friendships with their close-knit classmates, but they don’t see any future in staying in Crescent after they graduate from high school. Taran said he’s planning on leaving for college and a career training reining horses, possibly in Oklahoma or Texas. Trinton said he’s planning to pursue a career as a firefighter in a town large enough to have a professional fire department. “We always told the boys that the key to success is finding your passion and following it,” said Cindy Koch. “I’m still hoping to experience that.” Ed Merriman can be reached at 541-617-7820 or at emerriman@bendbulletin.com.

THE BULLETIN • THURSDAY, MAY 26, 2011

IN BRIEF Tour Stop horse event canceled The Tour Stop horse event that was scheduled at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center on Saturday and Sunday has been canceled because of the outbreak of the equine herpes virus. The event’s organizer, the Chris Cox Horsemanship Co., said the Redmond event was canceled to protect the horses and obey the suggested quarantines to prevent the spread of the virus. The company and the event center are working to reschedule the event.

COCC announces election results Central Oregon Community College administrators on Wednesday announced final vote tallies for the Associated Students of COCC election that ended Friday. College officials said incumbent Matt Coito and newcomers Kyder Olsen and Brandi Jordan would take over as the three executive council members for ASCOCC on Friday before discovering voting irregularities. On Wednesday, the college announced Coito, Olsen and Jordan remain the top votegetters, albeit with different vote totals. The college eliminated ballots that had too many or too few votes. Students were told to vote for three candidates. A total of 828 ballots were entered. Of those, 31 voted for no candidates, and 81 voted for too few or too many candidates. The final tally included 716 ballots. College Relations Director Ron Paradis blamed a software issue for the delay and confusion.

Oregon senator says aid needs to focus on struggling families, not institutions By Andrew Clevenger The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — With the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs holding another hearing today on ways to repair the beleaguered housing finance market, Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., urged his colleagues to focus on helping families.

“The (Obama) administration has largely looked at housing through the eyes of major financial institutions. I believe we need to look at it through the eyes of the success of our families,” he said Wednesday. There is growing concern that because of years of foreclosures, banks and other financial institutions now own

so many homes that the housing market is unlikely to recover its lost value. The glut of vacant properties will keep housing prices down, which in turn stifles any economic growth driven by robust sales and building of new homes. “It also has a huge impact that reverberates,” Merkley said. “The empty house on the street has a negative impact on the value of the other houses.” As the value of their homes goes down, consumers may be

less likely to spend, which in turn contributes to economic stagnation. This can have a direct impact on Oregon’s economy, Merkley said. The fewer new homes that are built, the less demand there is for lumber. Landscaping projects follow in the wake of new construction, so Oregon’s nursery stock exports suffer. All of which underscores the need to find ways to help families facing foreclosure, he said. See Housing / C5

CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS

Deschutes, union reach agreement Solid waste, road department workers pass on cost-of-living raises By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Deschutes County solid waste and road department employees gave up a cost-of-living wage increase as part of a oneyear extension to their union contract, which the Deschutes County Commission approved Wednesday morning. County Administrator Dave Kanner praised the employees’ concession. “I’m extremely pleased our employees are sensitive to the current economic conditions of our community as a whole,” Kanner said. The International Union of Operating Engineers Local 701, which represents road and solid waste employees, offered

in March to forgo a cost-of-living wage increase and extend their current contract by one year. At the time, Nelda Wilson, assistant business manager for the union, said the proposal was the union’s response to concessions made by other unions and uncertainty in many government budgets.

Other talks ongoing The county is still in negotiations with its largest employee union, and the county commission’s attention turned to that union’s wages and benefits on Wednesday. Forty-six employees represented by the American Fed-

eration of State County and Municipal Employees Council 75, or AFSCME, submitted written comments to the commissioners, and a few showed up to testify. The AFSCME bargaining team is scheduled to present its wage and benefit proposal to the county tonight. Last week, the county budget committee approved a budget that included a wage freeze for AFSCME-represented employees and members of a parole and probation officer’s union that is still in contract negotiations. The budget also includes a wage freeze for all nonrepresented employees, except for sergeants and lieutenants in

the Sheriff’s Office. Two years ago, county officials credited unions and nonrepresented employees who gave up or delayed pay increases with closing an estimated $1.3 million hole in the budget and preventing layoffs. In 2010, the unions and county officials failed to agree on additional concessions.

Families struggling In letters to the commissioners, AFSCME employees wrote that they are already struggling to support their families, and the combination of a wage freeze and health insurance increase could cause some employees to lose their homes or cut back on food purchases. See Contract / C5

Redmond nears purchase of school for its new city hall By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

REDMOND — The city of Redmond has almost completed its $260,000 purchase of Evergreen School, which it plans to convert into a new city hall in the next few years. The Redmond City Council approved the purchase earlier this week in a 5-1 vote. Now the Redmond School District, which owns the building, will work with its real estate agent to close the deal. The district agreed to the sale several months ago, but the deal is only now closing because the city asked for a nine-month duediligence period. During that

“The building we’re in is an old Safeway, and it’s pretty long in the tooth.” — George Endicott, Redmond mayor time, the city completed several inspections into the more than 90-year-old building’s soundness and expanded its Downtown Urban Renewal District. With all of those steps complete, the city will soon take ownership. Mayor George Endicott said buying the school was a chance

for the city to preserve an icon. Rehabbing Evergreen is also a chance for the city to create a building suited to its needs, Endicott said. “The building we’re in is an old Safeway, and it’s pretty long in the tooth,” Endicott said. The city had originally planned to build a new city hall on the site of the current one. With Evergreen available, though, the city decided it could renovate Evergreen for less money. The city expects to spend more than $5 million on Evergreen, though that work will not begin as soon as originally planned. Redmond faces a $2 million shortfall, so the

city has delayed working on Evergreen for about two years.

Urban growth funds Some of the cost will be offset by money from the urban renewal district. With Evergreen now inside the district’s borders, urban renewal money can be used on its renovation. Mike McIntosh, the district’s chief financial officer, said the sale proceeds will help pay down some of the district’s debt left over from land acquisition. The $260,000, he said, is worth about 66 percent of a full year’s debt payment. See City hall / C5

A psychologist called Darrell Middlekauff a psychopath in Deschutes County Circuit Court on Wednesday, basing his diagnosis on a review of the convicted killer’s criminal record. Middlekauff, 48, was convicted last month in the 2002 murder of his wife, Brenda Middlekauff. Brenda Middlekauff’s body was found three years after she disappeared, buried inside a steel drum in south Deschutes County with three gunshot wounds to the head. The sentencing phase of his trial began Monday. Psycholo gist Eric Johnson, of Portland, and two Deschutes County Sheriff’s deputies provided testimony Wednesday, part of the Darrell prosecution’s Middlekauff efforts to argue M idd lekau f f should be given a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Wednesday, prosecutors called Johnson to the stand to discuss his analysis of Middlekauff’s mental state, and deputies Michael Molman and Mike Quick to discuss a 2008 incident involving a makeshift knife found in Middlekauff’s cell at the Deschutes County jail. Johnson told the court he believes Middlekauff has antisocial personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder, and can be classified as a psychopath. Drawing on court records and other documentation of Middlekauff’s years in the criminal justice system, Johnson said Middlekauff has repeatedly demonstrated an inflated sense of self-importance, a tendency to manipulate and lie to everyone he encounters and a lack of empathy. “This is somebody who is pathologically self-centered,” Johnson said. “This is a very disturbed individual.” Duane McCabe, Middlekauff’s defense attorney, noted that Johnson’s assessment was conducted purely through a review of records and did not include any interviews with Middlekauff or anyone who knows him personally. Such an assessment is incomplete and potentially unethical, McCabe said. Under questioning by McCabe, Johnson conceded he had not asked to meet with Middlekauff or anyone else, as he had assumed the request would be rejected. Johnson said Middlekauff’s history indicates a high likelihood he would re-offend if released from jail. McCabe said it is impossible to predict future violent action, while Johnson said he was not attempting to predict the future but “forecasting probabilities,” by comparing Middlekauff’s profile with the profiles of other offenders who have been released.

State-wide Memorial Day patrols slated Police will be patrolling Oregon highways and roadways this Memorial Day weekend in an effort to increase safety and prevent crashes. The increase in patrols will start at 6 p.m. Friday and will go until midnight Monday. Officers will specifically be looking for drivers not obeying seatbelt laws, driving impaired, and general dangerous driving.

Two arrested in Sears robbery Two Klamath Falls residents were arrested after a robbery at Sears in Bend on Tuesday. Authorities said Arren Broderick, 42, and Adria Wilkinson, 35, were arrested on suspicion of robbery and theft after sev-

eral hundred dollars worth of items were stolen. When a store security guard confronted the pair, Wilkinson fled, and Broderick attempted to assault the guard while trying to escape. Broderick was arrested shortly after, and Wilkinson was later found traveling on U.S. Highway 97. Officers also discovered evidence of methamphetamine possession and distribution in Wilkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vehicle, and she was arrested on suspicion of theft, robbery and methamphetamine possession.

Marine mammal deaths tied to parasites The Associated Press SEATTLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two kinds of parasites typically found in cats and opossums have been detected in marine mammals that died in the Pacific Northwest, according to a federal study released Tuesday. Toxoplasma gondii and sarcocystis neurona were found in most of the animals, even healthy ones, according to scientists with the National Institutes of Health. They studied tissue samples from 161 seals, sea lions, Northern sea otters and other marine mammals collected in Washington, Oregon and southern British Columbia from 2004 to 2009. Toxoplasma gondii, which caused a large outbreak of disease in humans in 1995, enters water through infected cat feces. Sarcocystis neurona is believed to have been introduced in the Northwest by opossums, which can shed an infectious form of the parasite in their feces. Researchers found that marine mammals infected with both were more likely to have severe brain swelling and die than those infected with just one parasite. Identifying the link between these parasites and marine

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising that the number of animals tested came up positive for at least something.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dyanna Lambourn, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife marine mammal biologist

mammals could inform public policy decisions, such as managing populations of feral cats and opossum or reducing run-off into coastal waters, said Michael Grigg, the studyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead researcher who is with National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The public health message here is that people can easily avoid the parasites by filtering or boiling untreated water,â&#x20AC;? Grigg said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Limiting serious disease in marine mammals, however, will require larger conservation efforts to block these land pathogens from flowing into our coastal waters.â&#x20AC;? Researchers in Washington state and Canada also contributed to the study. Necropsies were performed on 151 stranded marine mammals, as well as 10 healthy adult California sea lions that were euthanized to protect Columbia River fish stocks. The uptick in sarcocystis neu-

rona infections was unexpected, Grigg said, adding that opossums are expanding their range into the Northwest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising that the number of animals tested came up positive for at least something,â&#x20AC;? said Dyanna Lambourn, a marine mammal biologist with the

Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife and a study co-author. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not every animal out there is dying from these protozoal infections, but it is something that, especially during this time of this year, we see quite a number of animals that are stranding with symptoms associated with these parasites,â&#x20AC;? Lambourn said.

O Bottle bill on governor’s desk Landslide fears delay Senate OKs expansion of recycling program to allow more containers, possibly hike payback By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

SALEM — At least nine U.S. states and more than a dozen countries have imitated Oregon’s bottle deposit system credited with significantly boosting recycling — and some of them made it better. Now Oregon’s trying to catch back up and retain its image as a leader in environmental programs. Taking cues from successful improvements in other states, the Oregon Senate voted We d n e s d a y IN THE to modernize LEGISLATURE a 40-year-old recycling program. Consumers pay an extra nickel when they buy soft drinks and other beverages, and they get their deposit back if they return the empty container to a grocery store. But the system, which once collected nearly every eligible bottle, has recently languished to about 75 percent. Vagaries of the law mean a plastic water or soda bottle would require a deposit, but a nearly identical iced tea bottle would not. Proponents said it’s time to modernize the law so it applies to energy drinks, bottled coffee and other beverages that weren’t around when the measure was created in 1971. “As the bottle bill turns 40, it is showing signs of age,” said Sen. Mark Hass, D-Beaverton. The Senate’s approval on a 1911 vote sends HB 3145 to Democratic Gov. John Kitzhaber.

Don Ryan / The Associated Press

An unidentified man turns in used bottles at a bottle collection site in Beaverton on Wednesday. The Senate has approved a bill that proponents say would modernize the bottle bill by doubling the deposit from a nickel to a dime if certain recycling thresholds aren’t met. Republicans Jason Atkinson of Central Point, Frank Morse of Albany and Bruce Starr of Hillsboro joined all Democrats in advancing the legislation. The proposed changes would make more beverage containers subject to a deposit and would experiment with overhauling the way containers are collected. It also would double the de-

posit from a nickel to a dime if redemption rates stay below 80 percent for at least two consecutive years. Proponents say a higher financial incentive would encourage more people to redeem their bottles, and it would push retailers to ensure the deposit system is run efficiently because they’ll want to avoid the hike.

California, Maine, Michigan and Vermont all charge 10 cents or more on at least some beverage containers. Majority Democrats rejected a Republican attempt to strip the bill of the provision that would potentially hike the deposit. Some Republicans said they supported most provisions in the bill but could not vote for a bill that would potentially increase costs for consumers. “If we need the extra nickel in the future we can add it,” said Sen. Alan Olsen, R-Canby. A nickel when the program was first created had the buying power of 28 cents today. Redemption has fallen from a peak of nearly 100 percent participation in the 1990s, in part due to the expansion of curbside recycling and consumer frustration with grocery-store redemption centers. The bill would expand a pilot project that experiments with centralized redemption centers to partially replace the current system: a sometimes dirty, sticky and time-consuming process of inserting cans one-by-one into machines in the back rooms or parking lots of grocery stores. Most other states with deposit systems incorporate redemption centers in their collection process. Oregon already has two centralized redemption centers in Portland suburbs. They allow consumers to manually count their cans at an automated system as they would in a grocery store, allow staff to hand count them or drop them off in premarked bags and get the money later. Rep. Ben Cannon, a Portland Democrat and proponent of the bill, said he expects redemption centers to grow and handle more containers but not to altogether eliminate grocery stores. “Oregon was the pioneer in this,” Cannon said. “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and Oregon has been well-imitated.”

golf course resort on state’s southern coast By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — A golf resort representing some of the best economic development hopes for the southern Oregon Coast has hit a snag that will delay it at least a year. The state Land Use Board of Appeals has sent plans for the Crook Point Golf Resort back to Curry County to more fully consider the potential for landslides and whether development might occur too close to the rocky cliffs of the coastline. The ruling came on challenges filed by the conservation groups Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition and the Oregon Coast Alliance. Courtney Johnson, attorney for Oregon Shores, said they had been concerned the plan did not fully address steep slopes on the property and the proximity to sea bird nesting areas on a national wildlife refuge. Inspired by the Bandon Dunes Golf Resort in neighboring Coos County, the Crook family wants to build the $42 million golf resort on 378 acres halfway between Gold Beach and Brookings. The site borders Pistol River State Park. Leroy Blodgett, president of Eagle Two Development, is handling the permitting pro-

cess for the resort. He said they had hoped to start construction this year, but doing the geological studies required will now put things off until next year. “It’s just a matter of going out and spending the money and the time to do the geological assessment,” he said. Blodgett said the project has strong local support. “Everyone here has been looking forward to this for a long time,” he said. “We are frustrated with the land-use process.” Curry County Commissioner Bill Waddle said a destination resort such as Crook Point is the kind of thing the region needs to replace the declining jobs of the timber and fishing industries, which are no longer strong enough to sustain the county. Curry County’s 11.2 percent unemployment rate in April exceeded the state rate of 9.6 percent and the national rate of 9 percent. Developers project the resort would bring 177 permanent jobs to Curry County and help build the region’s reputation as an international golf destination, which was started by Bandon Dunes.

Senate approves kicker switch to credit IN THE LEGISLATURE ers. The idea was to control the growth of government. Until the 1995 legislative session, the refunds were handled as credits against the previous year’s taxes. But Republican legislators — including former U.S. Sen. Gordon Smith, who was then president of the Senate — wanted taxpayers to receive actual paper checks so they could have tangible proof that the government was keeping its promise. But processing those checks costs money.

The state spent about $1 million for postage, printing and administration in 2007, the last year kicker checks went out, according to the state Department of Revenue. House Bill 3543 would save those costs by taking the kicker back to a credit — and lawmakers say the state budget needs every bit of savings it can get. “Our human services budget, our education budget, our public safety budget are a shame,” said state Sen. Laurie Monnes Anderson, D-Gresham. “If we have a way to save a million or two, then we need to do it.” There haven’t been any kicker checks in recent years because revenue trends have been far below projections.

SALEM — A jury has determined an Oregon State Penitentiary inmate who killed another prisoner in 2008 should be sentenced to death. The Statesman Journal reported the same jury that convicted 33-year-old Isacc Creed Agee of aggravated murder earlier this month decided Wednesday to impose the death sentence in the penalty phase of the trial in Salem. Prosecutors asked for the death penalty because Agee is already serving a sentence for attempted murder. Prison officials found Agee and another inmate beating 36-yearold Antonio Barrantes-Vasquez in his prison cell in February 2008. Defense attorneys had argued for a life sentence, saying that Agee suffered mental problems because his mother drank and used drugs when she was pregnant.

Temporary deal met on sparing sea lions PORTLAND — The Humane Society of the United States says it has reached an agreement with

the states of Oregon and Washington and a federal agency to temporarily halt plans to kill California sea lions at Bonneville Dam this year. The Humane Society said Wednesday the agreement with the states and NOAA Fisheries Service suspends plans to kill as many as 85 sea lions at the dam, where they feed on federally protected salmon and steelhead migrating up the Columbia River. Earlier this month, the fisheries service had authorized the states to resume killing some sea lions after a federal appeals court struck down the previous authorization last year. The Humane Society argued that overfishing, hatchery practices and dam operations are a much bigger threat to fish.

NBC series ‘Grimm’ to film in Portland PORTLAND — The Governor’s Office of Film and Television has confirmed the NBC series “Grimm” will film on location in Oregon this summer. The Oregonian reported the series filmed its pilot episode in Portland this spring and was picked up for the NBC fall 2011 schedule.

Vince Porter, executive director of the governor’s film office, says production is expected to begin in Portland in mid-July, with at least 200 people working fulltime on the show. “Grimm” is a fantasy-crime series hybrid about a Portland homicide detective who discovers he’s descended from a long line of hunters who have the ability to see the kind of supernatural creatures made popular in Grimm’s Fairy Tales.

SALEM — The kicker check will not be in the mail under a change that has cleared its final legislative hurdle and is on its way to Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber to sign. The Oregon Senate voted 1712 Tuesday to change the state’s one-of-a-kind kicker rebate law from a check to an income tax credit, The Oregonian reported. “People would still get their full kicker, they would just get it in a different form,” said state Sen. Ginny Burdick, D-Portland.

Legislature should kill the death tax

regon’s death tax should die. Instead, the Legislature is moving ahead with a bill that would make Oregon’s top death tax rate No. 2 in the nation.

Oregon is already tied with Hawaii for first place for having the highest marginal tax rate on income. Oregon does not need to do more to cement a reputation for being a high tax state. House Bill 2541 changes the triggers and tax rates for Oregon’s law. Oregon’s death tax now kicks in when somebody dies and leaves an estate valued at $1 million or more. The minimum tax rate is 6 percent at $1 million, gradually increasing to the maximum rate of 16 percent, according to The Oregonian. The bill would push the threshold to $1.5 million and change the tax rates to 10 percent at the bottom and 19.8 percent at the top. The tax currently hits only a small percentage of Oregonians — about 1 percent. The Legislative Revenue office reports that state revenue should remain about neutral with the changes in the bill. The tax brings in about $100 million a year. The bill also changes the wording of Oregon law so the death tax would no longer be a “death tax.” It would be called an estate tax. Calling it a death tax is perhaps too honest for legislators. In the Oregon House, state Reps. Jason Conger, R-Bend, Gene Whis-

nant, R-Sunriver, and Mike McLane, R-Powell Butte, voted against it. Rep. John Huffman, R-The Dalles, voted for it. The Oregon Senate has not yet voted on it. Death taxes are double taxes. Income is taxed. And it is income that enables people to buy the things that make up an estate — whether it be building up a business, a ranch or forest tracts. Then Oregon goes after that income again. Oregon taxes it when a family has just lost a family member. That’s greedy and predatory. Taxing an estate at nearly 20 percent can also break up a family business, a farm or forestland. What business do you know that keeps hundreds of thousand in cash around? When it comes time to pay the tax, families frequently must sell off part of the estate to pay for it. That puts Oregon in the business of breaking up businesses. It is true that getting rid of the death tax could mean a loss of state revenue. But we don’t know how getting rid of the tax might also benefit the state. Should Oregon project an image as a high tax state or a low tax state? No estate tax and a change in Oregon’s reputation could draw new business and residents to the state, instead of being an invitation to leave. HB 2541 repairs nothing. It makes a bad tax worse.

End energy tax credit O

regon’s most notorious tax scheme, the Business Energy Tax Credit, is due to sunset next year. Lawmakers should resist pressure to extend or expand the BETC and let it end. BETC was a product of the 2007 Legislature, an attempt to help make Oregon a leader in green power production and use by giving generous credits to such folks as the builders of wind farms. It turned out to be wildly popular, in no small part because there were so few limits on who could qualify for the credit. But with popularity came expense in the form of lost revenue to the state. Even after outrage over the program led lawmakers to tighten it a bit it will cost Oregon some $200 million over the coming biennium, and even if the program ended today the losses would continue until 2017. We will admit BETC might not be all bad. Some businesses have used it to purchase bus passes for their employees, and that, arguably, is a good thing. At least one Portland law firm has used it that way. The Bulletin, too, received a BETC a while back. But BETC hasn’t delivered much — or at least there’s not much hard evidence to support the idea that it has — in the way of long-term jobs. As one example, builders of a wildly

expensive wind farm in Sherman and Gilliam counties are financing their nearly $2 billion project largely with BETC and similar credits from the counties and federal government. Taxpayers will foot about 63 percent of the bill for this baby, which, when completed, will create a whopping 40 permanent jobs. Which leads us to this suggestion, not only about BETC but about other tax credits available in Oregon. As Sen. Chris Telfer, R-Bend, suggested recently, those who favor tax credits should demonstrate their true cash value to the state and its communities. How many jobs do they create? How much revenue do they bring in that is taxable? If they’re not generating jobs or cash or easing the lives of the disabled or poor, they should be eliminated. BETC got where it is because it was billed as something so good for Oregon it had to be done. Clearly, however, it hasn’t been good for the state’s economy. Many of the projects it has helped finance would have been built anyway, and in that respect it hasn’t even played a major role in turning Oregon green. Lawmakers can bring the BETC mess to a quick resolution by letting the credit program sunset. They should do so.

My Nickel’s Worth Space shouldn’t be priority On May 16, the shuttle Endeavor was launched from Cape Canaveral. I am not a big fan of the space program, never have been. The icing on the cake of my lack of enthusiasm came to me that day in the form of a picture of the astronauts’ breakfast before they were launched. Included in the sumptuous meal were lobster tails. I remember lobster tails, when I could afford them. While driving on the streets of Bend that day, witnessing the poor souls on street corners begging for money, claiming to be hungry, homeless and unemployed, I could not help but wonder what kind of a world we live in when we are spending billions on other countries, who betray us, and space launches (so the captain of the shuttle could have his “last thrill” in space) and our people are suffering from the ravages of flood, and lack of employment, and our boys and girls are dying in far off countries. What a wonderful world we used to live in! Claire Kas Bend

Teachers chose self-interest After reading Michael Geisen’s “In My View” rebuke of The Bulletin’s editorial on contract negotiations in Redmond schools, I felt compelled to comment. First, selective statistics aside, it would be most difficult to convince taxpayers that teachers are poorly

compensated. The most effective measure of appropriate compensation is supply and demand. Is there a shortage of teachers? Are teachers resigning over compensation issues? Are there scores of applicants for every teaching position? If teachers weren’t being paid enough, the response to those questions would be the opposite of the current rhetorical answers. That is the economic response to Mr. Geisen’s view. The second and more important issue regards Mr. Geisen’s basic understanding of the human condition. A person’s true values are revealed in times of conflict or crisis. It is easy to hold oneself as a professional with a “hunger for learning, a love of children and a desire for social justice” when times are good and the raises are rolling in. It is a revelation of true character when difficult choices must be made. In this time of difficult choices, the teacher’s union chose economic self interest over the welfare of students. That is not flawed logic; it is an accurate observation, based on facts. Mr. Geisen’s disregard for this fundamental concept is most disconcerting. Ken Waskom Bend

Don’t erase criminal past House Bill 3376 pending in Salem intends to expunge Class B felonies from a criminal’s record. That is a dangerous bill! Between January 1991 and May

2004 I owned a background investigation firm in California before retiring to Central Oregon. During that time we processed well in excess of 120,000 candidates for over 1,000 clients across the country. Consistently we found that as high as 9.2 percent of all candidates submitted had hidden felony criminal records that disqualified them from employment for that job. Each research request contained a signed release purporting they had no record and that we could research them, which in itself was a lie. By law we could not report misdemeanors even though we could see them in our investigation. It should be noted that probably 30 percent of felony arrests were eventually actually plea-bargained down to misdemeanors, although the crime in question was a felony when charged. Many of our clients worked for governmental agencies that required background checks, and others either dealt directly with children or in handling of thousands of dollars in company funds where fidelity was paramount. Most new clients were shocked how often we found a serious hidden criminal history not made known to them. In some cases, a convicted felon can apply to the courts to have his or her record expunged under restricted circumstances. That said, we found the recidivism rates for applicants with criminal histories was an astounding 23 percent. Defeat HB 3376! Bill Saling Redmond

Signs of progress in Afghanistan where U.S. is present TRUDY F RUBIN

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — lying out of this city in a Blackhawk helicopter, one passes over a large walled compound that contains a traditional two-story Afghan house built around a courtyard, in which sits a small white-domed mosque. This once was the home base of the Afghan Taliban leader Mullah Omar, from which he ruled most of the country. Now called Camp Gecko, and crammed with many added buildings, it is a base for U.S. special forces and — as any Kandahari will tell you — the CIA. No question many things have changed here. Much of Kandahar city and the surrounding province were under Taliban control a year ago, but key districts have been cleared by a surge of U.S. and Afghan forces during the last eight months. However, Kandahar is still hotly contested; the Taliban recognize its symbolic value and launched a flashy coordinated attack on key municipal buildings last week. “Kandahar city is a war zone right in the middle of a proxy war between radical Islam … and the West,” one U.S. officer rightly told me.

So, in the wake of Osama bin Laden’s death, when Washington is debating how fast U.S. troops can hand off responsibility to Afghan forces, I wanted to see how much progress had been made in the province. The U.S. strategy has been to set up small outposts throughout Arghandab, manned by special-forces teams that help create units of Afghan Local Police, or ALP, a local protection force that reports to and supplements the Afghan National Police. Many doubt that the ALP is the crucial element the military claims. But if properly controlled by the district police chief so that it doesn’t turn into a predatory militia, the ALP can provide jobs (at $120 a month) and assist the police. Case study: Taben is a fly speck mudbrick village of 500 souls, with a bazaar of five shops, that had been Taliban-controlled until special forces pushed them out. Mosques were asked to choose leaders who assembled a shura that elected Mohammed Issak as their malik, or leader. Issak, a skinny former cop, along with his village committee, helped the special forces vet ALP members. In return, the

village got U.S. military help to fund development projects. Next stop, Khakrez district, in the north of Kandahar province, where special forces are also based. Khakrez is poor but has the potential, in times of peace, to profit from the presence of Afghanistan’s third most popular religious shrine. The Taliban, which disdain such shrines, have attacked this one many times. In Khakrez, the key was to find a better district governor and chief of police. These officials are appointed by Kabul, and too often prey upon locals, pushing them toward the Taliban. Balancing tribal interests when making these picks is also important. In this case, with U.S. nudging, the appointees appear to be effective. District chief Kaydum Khan stood in front of a

photo of previous governors and police chiefs killed by the Taliban — including his brother, two years ago. “I’ll never quit,” he says. As we sit down on cushions to a meal of potatoes, lentils, okra and flat bread, he says of his brother, “When he was killed we only had 20 soldiers to protect the district center, and we got attacked by hundreds of Taliban. “The only reason things are better now is that we have U.S. forces, the Afghan National Army and the Afghan National Police, and good coordination between all of us. Before, the coordination was very limited.” Khan says it is important for him to have a district police chief who knows the area. (Afghan police are national, and often the chief appointed by Kabul is from elsewhere.) He has two further messages: First, Afghanistan will only be safe when America forces Pakistan to stop sheltering the Taliban, who have a safe haven just across the border from Kandahar. Second, “If the Americans leave, the Pakistani government will push the Taliban into this country to fight. We are scared

there will be a lot of killing and death.” The takeaway is this: There has indeed been progress made in clearing Taliban forces out of Kandahar province, progress heavily dependent on U.S. military support for the Afghan army and police. But progress also depends on the all-toorare appointment of strong district officials, who are popular with local villagers and tribes. Can these gains be solidified? Can good officials be protected from assassination? Perhaps, but it will take more time and U.S. training for Afghan security forces. The transition from NATO to Afghan security control will run from 2011 to the end of 2014. Even if things don’t regress, Kandahar clearly will not be ready until the far end. In the meantime, other developments — possibly a new U.S. policy toward Pakistan or a decision by the Taliban, under pressure, to talk — might speed the day when Afghans can handle more of their own security. No guarantees here, but some basis for hope. Trudy Rubin is a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

June 17, 1914 - May 14, 2011 Jay came to a peaceful conclusion of a long life May 14, at Redmond Health Care Center. He was 96. Born in Rathdrum, ID, June 17, 1914, to John and Melissa Moberly, he was the fourth of eight children. Although he was born into a farming family, his mother Jay Moberly insisted he become educated and so took him from the fields of Green Bluff, WA, to Kinman Business College in Spokane, WA. As a young adult, and throughout his life Jay was a great support for his mother and her three young children after his father died unexpectedly. Jay was employed by the BLM for 29 years as an Administrative Assistant working in Lakeview, Burns, Reno, Bend and Prineville. He served in the Navy from 1942 to 1945. After retiring from the BLM, he began cattle ranching in Terrebonne. He shared this work with Mike Duggan who currently runs the Ranch, now called the D and D Ranch in Terrebonne. In 1976, he married Doris (Peterson) Herbert and with that marriage inherited four stepchildren. Pinochle and bridge parties, some travel and sharing the view of Smith Rock, the wildlife, birds, cows and flowers gave them joy. Doris passed away in 2004. Jay was a talented story teller and his ability to recall events and history of Central Oregon provided endless entertainment for those who gave him an ear. His book "In Strawberry Time" recounts the many adventures and joy he found in western life in rural America. He is survived by a sister, Ardith Moberly Klein of Ephrata, WA; and a brother, Clell Moberly of Spokane, WA; stepchildren, Carolyn Messerly of Littleton, CO, Emily Herbert of Portland, Jack Herbert of Darby, MT, and Ruth Herbert of Redmond; as well as in-laws, cousins and grandchildren. Donations may be made to Hospice of Redmond. A celebration of Jay's life will be held June 18, 2011, 12 noon, at the D & D Ranch.

She was born to Elmer and Edith Waters in Fort Morgan, CO, on September 18, 1925. Her siblings (Reginald, Charles, and Regina) predeceased her. Connie studied nursing in WWII, serving as a registered nurse in Portland and Klamath Falls. She married Earl E. Corum of Silver Lake April 3, 1949. They had three children, Richard Jewell Corum (deceased), Hugh Wesley Corum of Milwaukie, OR, Cynthia Diane Niemelä of Bennett, CO; two grandsons, George Earl Niemelä of Bennett, CO, and Joseph Hugh Niemelä of Huntington Beach, CA.

Mark Haines, popular CNBC anchor, dies at 65 By Michael J. De La Merced and Brian Stelter New York Times News Service

Mark Haines, a popular and often combative morning host of financial news programs on CNBC, including “Squawk on the Street,” died Tuesday at his home in Marlboro, N.J. He was 65. CNBC announced his death on its website but did not give a cause. Traders fell silent when the announcement was made on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, where “Squawk on the Street” originates. Haines was its co-host at his death. A television newsman who had worked in New York City and Philadelphia, Haines joined CNBC in 1989, when it was still a newcomer, and became one of its most prominent faces. In 1995, he was the first host of the morning show “Squawk Box,” leavening discussions on fast-moving stocks with banter about pop culture and personalities. He became the co-host of “Squawk on the Street,” another morning show, in 2005, paired with Erin Burnett. (Burnett left

Housing Continued from C1 The Obama administration’s Making Homes Affordable Plan, launched in March 2009, set aside $75 billion to help homeowners on the verge of defaulting maintain ownership of their properties. But MHAP’s results have been underwhelming, with fewer than 400,000 loans modified under the program by July 2010. Projections put the total number of modified loans at around 750,000, but those numbers represent a small fraction of defaulted loans. In 2009, there were 4 million foreclosure filings nationwide, up from the 3.1 million in 2008. In March, the Republican-led House of Representatives voted to end the program. Merkley called MHAP “a colossal disappointment.” Because it is a voluntary program, banks and loan servicers have not taken it seriously, he said.

Middlekauff Continued from C1 Molman testified that he searched Middlekauff’s cell in March 2008 after jail authorities were alerted Middlekauff had a makeshift knife or “shank” and planned to use it to harm a deputy. Monday, the former inmate who advised jail authorities of the threat testified that Middlekauff had shown him the shank, and had said he was planning to use it to “go kamikaze” on a deputy who had confiscated his thermal underwear. Molman found the shank wrapped in toilet paper under

Contract Continued from C1 The county has proposed contract language requiring AFSCME employees to pay a percentage of the county’s health insurance costs — up to 20 percent — although the county would not implement the costshare insurance premiums for at least a year. The health insurance premium for full-time employees in the upcoming budget year is $65 a month, up from the current $50.

Most of the employees who wrote to the county work in the Mental Health Department, and some work in the information technology department, the District Attorney’s Office and in custodial services. Several

CNBC this month to join CNN.) He also was the host of CNBC’s “Morning Call.” From the Mark Haines beginning Haines did not fit the mold of a television anchor. The business magazine Fast Company once likened his rumpled look to that of “a butcher forced to wear a business suit.”

Off camera attire Colleagues remembered him off-camera in sweatpants, with mussed hair and bare feet. He became known as a wry, if curmudgeonly, host whose interviews, often with chief executives, could be sharptongued, setting the kind of contentious tone that has been increasingly adopted on cable news programs across the dial. “He was the first business journalist ever to ask a CEO a hard question,” the CNBC host Jim Cramer said in an e-mail. Another CNBC host and pro-

“That’s why I’ve tried to push the administration to focus more on (the borrower) side of the equation,” he said. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, enacted in 2010, helped rein in some predatory practices in the housing financial market. For example, banks and loan servicers can no longer receive bonuses for steering borrowers into mortgages they can’t afford.

ducer, David Faber, traced that rough-and-tumble approach to Haines’ beginnings as a broadcast journalist covering corruption in Providence, R.I. “There were those unexpected moments in interviews when he would be relentless and ferocious and not take no for an answer,” Faber said in an interview. To Haines, his style was just good television. “If we don’t get people who watch, we’re out of business,” he told The Chicago Tribune in 1998. “At the same time, you have to have a core of people who understand business.” Haines was born on April 19, 1946, and grew up in Oyster Bay, on Long Island. He graduated from Denison University in Granville, Ohio, in 1969 and was a news anchor for KYWTV in Philadelphia, WABC-TV in New York and WPRI-TV in Providence before deciding to go to law school, enrolling at the University of Pennsylvania and graduating in 1989. He was a member of the New Jersey State Bar Association. He is survived by his wife, Cindy, and children, Matthew and Meredith.

The effects of the housing collapse are still being felt in Oregon. In April 2011, Oregon ranked 10th in the nation in the percentage of homes subject to a foreclosure filing, with one out of every 497 homes affected, according to RealtyTrac, a company that monitors real estate data. Nationwide, the average was one in every 593 homes. April saw an 8.56 percent decrease in the number of nationwide foreclosure filings from the previous month, the seventh

straight month-to-month decline, but Oregon saw its April numbers jump by two-thirds from March. Central Oregon remains particularly hard hit. Deschutes (one in 265 properties foreclosed, 296 total), Crook (one in 195, 53 total) and Jefferson (one in 429, 23 total) counties were all above the national and statewide averages in April, according to RealtyTrac’s figures. Along with Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, Merkley introduced legislation this month that proposes what he considers common sense fixes based on what’s best for borrowers. These include one point of contact for loan modifications so families don’t get lost in the shuffle of repetitive paperwork, and stopping the so-called “dual track,” where families receive conflicting advice because banks continue to pursue financially rewarding foreclosure proceedings even as they try to help borrowers keep their houses. “I think we have to be a lot

Middlekauff’s mattress. Fashioned from a plastic electrical outlet cover taken from the room at the jail where inmates appear in court by video, the shank appeared to have been sharpened by repeated scraping across the concrete floor in Middlekauff’s cell, Molman said. Immediately prior to the search, Middlekauff objected, saying, “What are you gonna do, plant a knife in my cell?” Molman recalled. Mike Quick, a former corrections officer who was working with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s detectives unit in 2008, came to the jail to investigate the discovery of the shank in Middlekauff’s cell.

Deschutes County Deputy District Attorney Beth Bagely had Quick handle the shank, demonstrating how the triangular piece of plastic could be held to stab or slash at guards or inmates. An examination of the shank at the Oregon State Crime Lab found one fingerprint, which was determined not to belong to Middlekauff, Quick said. Prosecutors did not attempt to explain the absence of Middlekauff’s fingerprints on the shank. While objecting to Quick’s testimony as “irrelevant” and “conjecture,” Middlekauff defense attorney Ralph Smith introduced the possibility the

women wrote that their husbands lost jobs in Bend during the recession, or their incomes were severely reduced, and the wives who work for Deschutes County now bring in most of their families’ incomes. Robyn DeVoll, a service coordinator for the county’s Developmental Disabilities Program, wrote that her husband’s construction company has become “more or less non-existent” following the economic downturn. “Subsequently, earlier this year, I asked and was granted a ‘hardship’ approval to cash in my Deferred Compensation account to help with basic living expenses,” DeVoll wrote. “We have two sons. Our oldest is in college, and our youngest will be graduating in June and going to college in the fall. The reason for this letter is to ask you not to increase our insurance premiums. At this point,

my family cannot afford any additional expenses going out of our budget each month.”

State still in trouble

Maurice Goldhaber, pioneering physicist Los Angeles Times Maurice Goldhaber, one of the pioneers of modern physics whose experiments helped create the current understanding of how the world works, died May 11 at his home on Long Island, N.Y., after a short illness. He had celebrated his 100th birthday less than a month earlier. Goldhaber was “one of the world’s most distinguished nuclear and particle physicists,” the U.S. government said in 1998 when it presented him the prestigious Enrico Fermi Award. His innovative and thoughtprovoking experiments provided much of the foundation for the standard model of physics that now paints our view of the universe, and his leadership and vision as head of the Brookhaven National Laboratory during the 1960s led to three Nobel Prizes in Physics for the Long Island institution.

more aggressive than just making the loan modification program work,” he said.

Homebuyer credit He would also like to make Obama’s temporary tax credit for first-time homebuyers permanent and allow bankruptcy judges to modify the terms of a mortgage just like any other pending loan. “Clearly, our families have a big stake in financial fairness,” he said. “In the long term, we thrive because our families succeed, and having fair financial documents, particularly in mortgages — the most (significant) wealth-building instrument that exists — is very important.” The benefits of homeownership are well-documented, he said. Children whose parents own their home are more likely to graduate from high school, go to college, stay off public subsidies and stay out of prison. Andrew Clevenger can be reached at 202-662-7456 or at aclevenger@bendbulletin.com.

shank may have belonged to another inmate. Middlekauff had only recently been transferred to the cell from another section of the jail, and the inmate with which he had been sharing the cell had been moved out the night before the search. Prosecutors plan to call Brenda Middlekauff’s sister, Rita Ege, to the stand today to provide a victim impact statement. Middlekauff’s defense team intends to call a second psychologist Tuesday, expected to be the final day of testimony in the sentencing phase of the trial. Scott Hammers can be reached at 541-383-0387 or at shammers@bendbulletin.com.

City hall

Deanna Rukaveno, who also works in the Developmental Disabilities Program, wrote that she is a single mother of two children, one of whom she is putting through college on take-home pay of approximately $2,500 a month. A wage freeze and an increase in insurance costs “would mean choosing between helping put my daughter through college or keeping my home,” Rukaveno said. “This scenario would likely lead to another Deschutes County home going into foreclosure.”

Continued from C1 Redmond schools replaced Evergreen with Sage Elementary, which opened at the beginning of the current school year. The district made that move because upgrading the building to current school building codes would have cost at least as much as building Sage. Evergreen’s aged infrastructure, including its boilers, were also a heavy drain on the district’s budget. Closing the sale will bring a sense of relief for the district, McIntosh said. “It has been a very expensive building to maintain and keep up,” McIntosh said.

The Columbia River is swollen with heavy spring runoff water as it flows under stormy clouds near Corbett on Wednesday. The National Weather Service said the river was just below flood stage early Wednesday morning but was expected to gradually rise.

Columbia likely to surpass flood level, forecasters say By William McCall The Associated Press

PORTLAND — A wet spring and a heavy snowpack have combined to fill Northwest reservoirs and push some rivers to high levels as temperatures begin to rise and boost the mountain runoff, forecasters said Wednesday. A flood warning was in place Wednesday for the Columbia River in the Portland area. Minor flooding was expected in some lowland areas, such as the river banks in Vancouver, Wash., on Sauvie Island north of Portland, and at some camping areas, such as Government Island between Portland and Vancouver. The National Weather Service said the river was just below its 16-foot flood stage Wednesday but was expected to gradually rise above that stage by today and remain slightly above for the rest of the week.

More bridge lifts The high water on the Columbia has caused some traffic problems by increasing the num-

ber of bridge lifts on Interstate 5 between Vancouver and Portland to accommodate maritime traffic. Between May 15 and noon Wednesday, the Oregon Department of Transportation raised the lift spans on the I-5 bridge 42 times — nine times last Saturday alone — because of reduced clearance for maritime traffic, said ODOT spokesman Don Hamilton. But under an agreement with the Coast Guard, no lifts are allowed during rush hour from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, Hamilton said. The duration of an average bridge lift is 8 minutes for a sailboat and 12 to 25 minutes for a tugboat with a barge. Times can vary depending on the size and height of the vessel, the stream flow, and whether the vessel is going upstream or downstream, Hamilton said. In Eastern Oregon and Washington, a small stream flood advisory was issued Wednesday for Grant, Umatilla, Union and

Wallowa counties in Oregon, including the cities of Pendleton, Milton-Freewater and La Grande. The weather service advisory, in effect through 12:30 p.m. today, included Walla Walla County in south central Washington, the city of Walla Walla, and Columbia County in southeast Washington.

High water for weeks “We’re looking at high water for two to three weeks at a minimum, and we’re probably only one or two good rainstorms away from some high flood levels in some areas,” said Steve King, a senior hydrologist at the weather service’s Northwest River Forecast Center in Portland. The cool spring helped the mountain snowpack build up and stay in place at middle to higher elevations longer than usual, he said. “It’s just a fantastic snowpack out there, and that’s really set things up for a very strong runoff season,” King said.

TENNIS: FRENCH OPEN

GOLF Prineville golfer captures Oregon Super Senior WASHOUGAL, Wash. — Prineville golfer Tom Liljieholm carded the low tournament score Wednesday to come from behind and win the Oregon Super Senior Championship. Liljieholm, a 73-year-old who started the day two strokes behind first place, fired a final-round 75 at par-70 Orchard Hills Country Club to finish the 36-hole tournament at 13 over par. Liljieholm beat first-round leader and tournament runner-up Jim Ferguson, of Portland, by four strokes to come out on top in a field of 61 golfers. The Oregon Super Senior Championship was introduced in 2006. The tournament is open to men age 65 and older. — Bulletin staff report

PARIS — Once again, everything but tennis dominated the conversation with Bethanie Mattek-Sands. The eye-black patches under her eyes are there partly to cut the glare, but mostly to provide a look of intimidation. The knee socks, pulled high like a school girl’s, have become a favorite part of the distinctive on-court

ensemble. The tattoos on her right arm, bees on the wrist and lilies on the inside of the bicep, are works in progress. They may be joined shortly by one on her left thigh. See Tennis / D5

NBA Lakers reach deal in principle with former Cavs coach LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Lakers have reached an agreement in principle with former Cleveland coach Mike Brown to succeed Phil Jackson, the team said Former Cleve- Wednesday. land coach “We’ve Mike Brown met with will be the Mike and new coach of the Los Ange- are very impressed les Lakers. with him,” said a statement issued by the Lakers. “In addition, we have an outline for an agreement in place and hope to sign a contract within the next few days.” Brown will get a four-year deal worth roughly $18 million, a person with knowledge of the discussions told The Associated Press on Wednesday on condition of anonymity because the Lakers hadn’t yet formally hired Brown. With a strong interview last weekend, Brown jumped to the front of the line of candidates for the daunting challenge of succeeding the 11-time NBA champion Jackson with one of the NBA’s iconic franchises. Brown will be the 22nd coach of the Lakers, whose 16 NBA titles trail only the Boston Celtics’ 17 in league history. Rather than promoting one of Jackson’s assistant coaches, the Lakers are changing course after an abrupt end to their two-year title reign and the long-anticipated departure of Jackson, the coach with the most championship rings in NBA history. A respected young tactician with a strong coaching pedigree, Brown also has ample experience with big games and big stars, even if he couldn’t guide LeBron James to a title. The 41-yearold Brown led the Cavaliers to the 2007 NBA finals and went 272-138 in five years with Cleveland, becoming the most successful coach in franchise history while compiling the league’s best regular-season record in each of his past two seasons. — The Associated Press

Dave McKae’s gamble paid off. At the suggestion of his players, Mountain View’s first-year baseball coach opted not to start ace Alex Robinett on the mound Wednesday in the Cougars’ first-round Class 5A state playoff game against Dallas, hoping to save the Intermountain Conference Hybrid pitcher of the year for Friday’s quarterfinal round and possibly Tuesday’s semifinals. The move worked as Mountain View topped the visiting Dragons 7-6 behind six

strong innings from Jacob Hollister, the Cougars’ No. 2 pitcher. An off-speed specialist, Hollister struck out one and walked one while scattering six hits over six innings of work. Robinett earned the save in the game, relieving Hollister one batter into the top of the seventh inning. “He’s a gamer,” McKae said about Hollister, who recorded seven ground ball outs Wednesday. “He wants the ball when the game’s on the line. … He’s a quarterback, so he’s been in that situation before.” See Cougars / D4

SUTHERLIN — Alex Holcomb hit a two-run home run in the eighth inning of a first-round Class 4A state playoff softball game to lift Madras past Sutherlin 4-2 on Wednesday. The road win advances the White Buffaloes to a quarterfinal playoff contest at Central High in Independence on Friday. Sutherlin scored a pair of runs in the first inning, but visiting Madras (22-5 overall) answered with two runs of its own in the third inning to tie the game. Neither team was able to produce a run over the next four innings, though Sutherlin did give the Buffs a scare in the bottom of the sixth. With a runner on second base, the Bulldogs hit a deep ball into the outfield which could have scored the go-ahead run. But Madras outfielder Norene Sampson turned what could have been a double into a double play, making a diving grab and then throwing a Bulldog runner out at second base. “That really got us charged up,” Madras coach Shawna McConnell said. With the score tied 2-2 after seven innings, the game went into extra innings, setting up Holcomb’s late-game heroics. Hitting with one out in the top of the eighth, Holcomb drilled the go-ahead home run, scoring Inez Jones, who was running for Maycee Abendschein. “It was the third pitch and she just absolutely tattooed that ball,” McConnell said about the homer. Jamie Moe relieved Abendschein, the White Buffaloes’ starting pitcher, in the eighth. Moe recorded three outs to earn the win and advance Madras to the next round of the playoffs. Offensively for the Buffs, Abendschein went two for three at the plate and Moe added a two-run single.

S B Soccer • Ajax defeats Timbers in friendly: Lorenzo Ebecilio scored an early goal as Dutch champion Ajax went on to a 2-0 victory over the Portland Timbers in a friendly Wednesday in Portland. Ebecilio scored from a cross by Gregory van der Wiel in the 18th minute. Demy De Zeeuw added the other goal in the 89th minute. The Timbers rested regular keeper Troy Perkins, giving Adin Brown the start. It was a rare home loss for the Timbers, who are in their inaugural Major League Soccer season. Portland has lost just twice at home, both nonleague matches, while winning all five of its home MLS games. • FIFA investigates bin Hammam, Warner for bribery: One week before FIFA’s presidential election, a new bribery scandal erupted that could destroy the candidacy of Sepp Blatter’s only rival and punish one of the federation’s longtime power brokers. FIFA on Wednesday summoned Asian Football Confederation leader Mohamed bin Hammam and FIFA vice president Jack Warner to an ethics hearing Sunday to face allegations of corruption during the Qatari official’s campaign visit to Trinidad two weeks ago. The timing and the source of the allegations, longtime Warner ally Chuck Blazer of the United States, gives them a gravity not seen with FIFA’s other scandals. Bin Hammam hopes to end Blatter’s 13-year presidency in a June 1 vote of FIFA’s 208 national members. But he could wind up barred from the vote in Zurich if the ethics panel decides to provisionally suspend him from all football duties while it prepares its case — leaving the 75-year-old Blatter clear to claim a fourth and final four-year term atop the governing body for the world’s most popular sport.

Golf • Schwartzel honored by European Tour: Masters champion Charl Schwartzel has become the sixth South African golfer to be given honorary life membership of the European Tour. The seventhranked Schwartzel joined Gary Player, Ernie Els, Retief Goosen, Trevor Immelman and Louis Oosthuizen in receiving the award. Schwartzel birdied the last four holes at Augusta National to win the Masters by two strokes in April, ensuring European Tour members currently hold all four of the majors.

Baseball • Yankees reliever Soriano could be out two months: New York Yankees setup man Rafael Soriano has an inflamed ligament in his right elbow that could keep the former All-Star out up to two months, depriving manager Joe Girardi of his main bridge to Mariano Rivera. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that Soriano was examined Wednesday by orthopedist Dr. James Andrews in Pensacola, Fla. Andrews recommended that Soriano rest the elbow for about two weeks before beginning a light throwing program. Cashman doesn’t think Soriano will be able to face hitters for at least six weeks. • Former Royals LHP Splittorff dead at 64: Paul Splittorff, the winningest pitcher in Kansas City Royals history and a popular broadcaster for the team, died Wednesday, 10 days after his family announced he was battling oral cancer and melanoma.

career in Kansas City. He retired during the 1984 season with a club-record 166 victories. • De La Rosa placed on DL with torn elbow ligament: The Colorado Rockies placed pitcher Jorge De La Rosa on the disabled list a day after he tore a ligament in his left elbow. To take his place, the Rockies recalled right-handed reliever Bruce Billings from Triple-A Colorado Springs. Billings has never pitched at the major league level. De La Rosa left in the third inning against Arizona on Tuesday with elbow soreness. An MRI later confirmed the tear.

Hockey • Brian Rafalski calls it career with three Stanley Cups: Brian Rafalski chose quality time with his wife and three kids over making $6 million next season with the Detroit Red Wings. The three-time Stanley Cup winner and two-time Olympic silver medalist confirmed Wednesday he’s retiring after 11 seasons in the NHL, leaving one lucrative season left on his contract. The 37-year-old defenseman scored just four goals last season, but made a big impact in previous seasons with the Red Wings and New Jersey Devils during his 515-point career. He helped the Devils win two Stanley Cups and Detroit hoist one.

Basketball • Bulls’ Asik to miss rest of season: Chicago Bulls backup center Omer Asik will miss the rest of the postseason because of a broken left fibula. Asik was injured in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals at Miami. The team says an MRI and CT scan taken before Game 4 on Tuesday confirmed the injury. He tried to play anyway, but lasted just two minutes. The Bulls say the injury will not require surgery and that the recovery time is about six weeks. The Bulls trail Miami 3-1, with Game 5 in Chicago today.

Cycling • Contador maintains Giro lead; Ulissi wins stage 17: Alberto Contador maintained his overall lead, while Diego Ulissi won a contentious three-man sprint finish in the 17th stage of the Giro d’Italia on Wednesday. Giovanni Visconti crossed first but was relegated by the race jury to third for pushing Ulissi out of the way with his hand. Ulissi rode the 143-mile leg from Feltre to Tirano, which included a major climb over the Tonale pass and a smaller climb over the Aprica pass, in 5 hours, 31 minutes, 51 seconds. Pablo Lastras Garcia of Spain crossed third but was awarded second place. The threeweek race ends Sunday with a 19-mile time trial in Milan.

Football Reports: NCAA rejects USC’s bid to ease sanctions: The NCAA has rejected Southern California’s bid to reduce some of the penalties imposed last year on its football program, including a two-year bowl ban and the loss of 30 scholarships over three years, according to media reports. A USC spokesman confirmed on Wednesday that the school has received a response from the NCAA regarding its appeal, but he says that NCAA rules prevent USC from commenting on the decision until it is released today. The denial of the appeal was first reported by uscfootball.com. —From wire reports

TENNIS: FRENCH OPEN

Djokovic grabs 41st win in a row The Associated Press PARIS — Even if Novak Djokovic is tennis’ man of the moment, there’s a long, long way to go before he’d approach most of Roger Federer’s many accomplishments. So far to go, really, that it’s not worth discussing. Still, there is one area in which, as of Wednesday, the two men are equal: Djokovic was credited with his 41st consecutive victory — matching the best streak of Federer’s career — when second-round opponent Victor Hanescu of Romania quit at the French Open because of a left leg injury. “I’m not thinking about when this streak — this amazing streak — will end. So I guess that’s the right mental approach,” said the second-seeded Djokovic, who was serving at 6-4, 6-1, 2-3, 30-love when Hanescu decided to stop playing at Court Philippe Chatrier. It was a far quieter and less theatrical ending than what transpired a few hours later on Court 1. Sabine Lisicki of Germany was bothered by dizziness and muscle cramps and was carried off on a stretcher, sobbing, after wasting a match point and a 5-2 lead in the third set of a 4-6, 7-5, 7-5 loss to two-time Grand Slam finalist Vera Zvonareva of Russia. Lisicki was treated by a trainer — including a blood-pressure check — during changeovers. “I hope she feels OK,” the No. 3seeded Zvonareva said. “No matter what, I had to keep doing my job.” Also reaching the third round: No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark, past champions Francesca Schiavone of Italy and Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia, 2010 runner-up Sam Stosur of Australia and unseeded Bethanie Mattek-Sands of the United States. Men’s winners included No. 3 Federer, No. 7 David Ferrer of Spain and three Frenchmen: No. 9 Gael Monfils, No. 13 Richard Gasquet and No. 17

Serbia’s Novak Djokovic returns the ball to Romania’s Victor Hanescu during their second round match of the French Open tennis tournament, at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, Wednesday. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Federer improved his career secondround mark at Grand Slam tournaments to 42-0 by beating French wildcard entry Maxime Teixeira 6-3, 6-0, 6-2. Teixeira is ranked 181st and never had played a tour-level match until winning in the first round Sunday. Federer, who counts the 2009 French Open among his record 16 Grand Slam titles, knows what it’s like to be the inexperienced kid across the net from one of the game’s greats. Back on Oct. 6, 1998, Federer played his sixth career match against Andre Agassi at Basel, Switzerland, and lost 6-3, 6-2. “You know, on the one hand, that you can’t win,” said Federer, who went on a 41-match unbeaten run from August 2006 to March 2007. “And if you win, it’s like a miracle.” Against Teixeira, Federer won 13 games in a row in one stretch. “That’s when I started panicking,” Teixeira said.

Federer’s record of 23 consecutive Grand Slam semifinals ended with a loss in the French Open quarterfinals a year ago. If he makes it to the semifinals this time, he could meet Djokovic. “He has had a lot of streaks and a lot of records that he’s broken. I mean, look, he has won the most Grand Slams. He’s the most successful tennis player ever. There is not much to say about that,” said Djokovic, who beat Federer in the semifinals at the last two major tournaments. “I mean, it’s just amazing what he has done throughout his career.” Asked what he needs to do to continue his current run, which began with two Davis Cup victories in December and includes a 39-0 start to 2011, Djokovic replied: “Stay focused, dedicated, motivated. I am still only 24. I have many more years to come. It’s been the best five, six months of my career. And I’m very happy with the way I’m playing.”

American League roundup

National League roundup

• Red Sox 14, Indians 2: CLEVELAND — Jon Lester coasted to his AL-leading seventh win and Boston bludgeoned Cleveland’s Mitch Talbot for seven runs in the first inning on its way to a victory, the Indians’ most-lopsided loss of the season. Dustin Pedroia hit a two-run homer for Boston in the first off Talbot (1-1). • Yankees 7, Blue Jays 3: NEW YORK — Andruw Jones hit a pair of two-run homers, Mark Teixeira also hit a two-run shot and Mariano Rivera made a milestone appearance in New York’s victory over Toronto. Rivera pitched the ninth inning in a nonsave situation, the 1,000th game he’s played for the Yankees. • Orioles 9, Royals 2: BALTIMORE — Adam Jones had two hits and two RBIs in an eight-run fourth inning, and Baltimore beat Kansas City for its fourth straight victory. Baltimore sent 13 batters to the plate in the fourth against Luke Hochevar (3-5), who yielded six hits, walked three and threw a wild pitch. It was the Orioles’ biggest inning since an eight-run sixth against Washington in 2009. • Rangers 2, White Sox 1: ARLINGTON, Texas — C.J. Wilson pitched into the seventh inning, and Ian Kinsler singled in the deciding run in the third inning in Texas’ victory over Chicago. Wilson (5-3) gave up one run and five hits in 6 1⁄3 innings to help the Rangers win for the third time in four games. The left-hander struck out five. • Mariners 3, Twins 0: MINNEAPOLIS — Erik Bedard threw six shutout innings, and Franklin Gutierrez hit his first home run of the season to help Seattle beat Minnesota. David Pauley threw two scoreless innings in relief, Brandon League pitched a perfect ninth for his 12th save in 15 attempts and the Twins managed only seven singles on their way to their fifth shutout loss of the season. They have the worst record in the majors at 16-32 and the fewest runs with 164. • Angels 4, Athletics 1: ANAHEIM, Calif. — Torii Hunter and Alberto Callaspo hit back-to-back homers, Ervin Santana allowed one run in six solid innings, and the Los Angeles Angels beat Oakland for their fourth win in six games. Reggie Willits’ first hit of the season was a run-scoring double for the Angels, and Peter Bourjos added an RBI single.

• Phillies 5, Reds 4: PHILADELPHIA — Infielder Wilson Valdez wound up as the winning pitcher when Philadelphia needed 19 innings to outlast Cincinnati. A dwindling crowd at Citizens Bank Park saw Raul Ibanez hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly to decide the longest major league game of the season. It ended at 10:19 p.m. after 6 hours, 11 minutes. • Brewers 6, Nationals 4: MILWAUKEE — Zack Greinke hit the go-ahead homer and struck out 10 over seven innings, helping Milwaukee beat Washington for its sixth straight victory. Prince Fielder drove in four runs for the Brewers, 13-3 in their past 16 games. • Braves 4, Pirates 2: PITTSBURGH — Brooks Conrad hit a pinch two-run homer in the 11th inning for Atlanta. With pinch-runner Wilkin Ramirez on first and one out, Conrad hit a 1-2 pitch from Jeff Karstens (3-3) into a sliver of seats in right-center for his first home run of the season and fifth career pinch-hit homer. • Astros 2, Dodgers 1: HOUSTON — J.R. Towles broke out of a zero-for-32 slump with three hits, the last an RBI single with two outs in the ninth that lifted Houston past Los Angeles. Brett Wallace doubled off Matt Guerrier (2-3), Bill Hall flied out for the second out and Towles lined a drive into center field, scoring Wallace. • Mets 7, Cubs 4: CHICAGO — Dillon Gee recovered from a poor start to throw six solid innings and the New York Mets beat wild reliever Justin Berg and the Chicago Cubs in a rainshortened game. • Padres 3, Cardinals 1: SAN DIEGO — Chase Headley doubled home the go-ahead run in the eighth inning, leading Mat Latos and San Diego over St. Louis, ending the Padres’ season-worst losing streak at five games. The Cardinals had won four in a row. • Diamondbacks 2, Rockies 1: DENVER — Ian Kennedy tossed eight crisp innings, center fielder Chris Young robbed Ty Wigginton of a game-tying homer and surging Arizona beat Colorado. Young drove in the go-ahead run with a bloop single in the sixth inning, then made his key grab in the eighth. • Marlins 7, Giants 6: SAN FRANCISCO — Scott Cousins scored the winning run in a brutal collision with catcher Buster Posey at home in the 12th inning, and Florida won after blowing a four-run lead in the ninth.

Redmond’s Knowles hits two homers in Class 6A playoff win Bulletin staff report REDMOND — Brandy Knowles hit two home runs, including a three-run blast in the sixth inning, to lead Redmond to a 10-4 victory over Lake Oswego in the second round of the Class 6A softball state playoffs. The Panthers, who improved to 27-2 with the win, will host South Salem on Friday in a 6A state quarterfinal game. Justine Callen went the distance in the circle for Redmond, striking out six while allowing nine hits and four runs. Callen helped her own cause with a three-run home run in the sixth inning. As a team, the Panthers recorded 12 hits, seven of which went for extra bases. In addition to the home runs by Knowles and Callen, Kathleen Heiberger hit a triple and Aubrey Nitschelm, Alyssa Nitschelm and Erin Ware all contributed doubles.

Mountain View pitcher Jacob Hollister throws a pitch during Wednesday’s Class 5A state playoff game again Dallas at Mountain View High School

Continued from D1 Hollister kept his cool in the fourth inning when three Mountain View errors helped turn a 1-1 ballgame into a 4-1 Dallas lead. The Cougars (19-6 overall) rallied and tied the game 4-4 in their half of the fourth and Hollister took over from there. The Mountain View junior retired all six batters he faced in the fifth and sixth innings before Cougar catcher Kyler Ayers hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth inning to give the home team a 7-5 lead. “We had a couple of errors there (in the fourth), but I knew we’d come back,” said Hollister, whose team will host Sherwood on Friday in a 5A state quarterfinal game. While Hollister kept the Dragons (1215) guessing for most of the game, his battery mate, Ayers, provided the big hit the Cougars were lacking during the early innings. Down 0-2 in the count with one out and Sam Peters on first base, Ayers blasted a curveball over the left-field fence for his first home run of the season, giving Mountain View a two-run lead. “I just wanted to get back up to the plate,” said Ayers, who was hitless in two at-bats and had missed a take sign before his home run. “It’s funny.

The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — The NFL is seeing the early signs of cracks in fan loyalty. Ten weeks into the owners’ lockout of the players, Commissioner Roger Goodell noted Wednesday the negative effect the labor dispute is having on pro football. “Clearly it has had an impact on the fans,” Goodell said as the owners completed their spring meetings. “We see it in various metrics. There’s been a noticeable change, TV ratings were down on the draft roughly 4 million people. NFL.com traffic (is down), we see that.” Ticket sales also are down. “Fans want certainty,” Goodell added. “We can’t underestimate that the fans are going through challenges just in the general economy.”

FOOTBALL That certainty isn’t likely to come soon. Both sides have a date in 8th U.S. District Court on June 3 for hearings on the league’s appeal to uphold the lockout. A decision probably won’t come for several weeks, and while another set of mediation sessions is scheduled to start June 7, not much is expected from those discussions while the appeal is being considered. The owners’ meetings included lengthy talks about the labor dispute, but no deadlines have been set — yet — for the opening of training camps, which usually happens in late July. That dropdead date “obviously is coming,” Goodell said, barring a collective bargaining agreement. “We’ve made it clear that (revenue loss) is current and will

The Associated Press DALLAS — Dirk Nowitzki stood on the court wearing a baseball hat celebrating the Dallas Mavericks’ return to the NBA finals. As his team received a silver trophy for winning the Western Conference, he looked as if he’d just been named the player of the week in November. Nowitzki’s indifferent attitude during the pandemonium around him shows just how locked in he is right now. “We’ve got one of those trophies already,” Nowitzki said. “This is nice for a day, but we set our goals in October to win it all. We haven’t done it yet.” The superstar who has dominated this postseason added yet another highlight Wednesday night, hitting a straightaway three-pointer with 1:14 left that put the Mavericks ahead for good on their way to a 100-96 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder that ended the Western Conference finals in five games. After clawing back from down 15 with 5:06 left in Game 4, the Mavericks were down by six with 4:37 left when they rallied again, outscoring the Thunder 14-4 the rest of the way. The biggest on-court celebration in franchise history followed, with the greatest player in franchise history hardly soaking it in. “It feels good to finally go back,” Nowitzki said. “This time, hopefully we can finish the job.” The Mavericks have long been among the NBA’s elite, winning 50 games for 11 consecutive seasons. However, it’s been a bit hollow because they don’t have a title to show for it. They reached the finals in 2006,

went up 2-0 and had a big, late lead in Game 3, only to lose to the Miami Heat in six games. They’d won only a single playoff series since until this spring. Dallas is 12-3 this postseason, and has won 10 of its past 11. Nowitzki has been at his best throughout, especially this series. He scored nine of his 26 points in the fourth quarter; for the series, he averaged 32.2 points, 11.8 in the fourth quarters. But it wasn’t just him. A roster filled with guys seeking their first title made big plays down the stretch, from Jason Kidd to Shawn Marion to Jason Terry. “We just kept our poise at all times,” said Marion, who scored 15 of his 26 points in the final quarter. “It seemed like we never got rattled and just chipped away and chipped away.” Oklahoma City led for most of this game, even staying ahead during a stretch of 11 straight missed shots. But the Thunder were just too young and too inexperienced to understand how to close out a game. When Dallas started to surge at the start and middle of the fourth quarter, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook came up with some answers. Yet when the pressure really ratcheted up, and 21,092 fans were at their loudest, the veteran Mavericks made all the right moves. Marion got Dallas within 9492 off a pass from Kidd, then Nowitzki stole a pass from Westbrook. Nowitzki actually missed his first three-point try on that possession and Westbrook got the rebound, but Terry stole it, got the ball to Marion and he fed Nowitzki for the goahead three.

hitting the fence all year in practice. It was a nice time to hit my first homer.” Trailing 7-5 entering the seventh inning, Dallas went down swinging as Josh Spencer started the inning with a double off Hollister. That led to Robinett taking the mound. The U.S. Military Academy-bound senior retired the three batters he faced in order, although Spencer did score after moving to third on a wild pitch and then coming home on a sacrifice fly by Scott Schepige. “Our guys know we’ve got Robinett on hand,” McKae said about the confidence of having Robinett, who hits 90-plus on the radar gun, coming out of the bullpen. “We get one run ahead, we know we can bring Alex in to close it out.” In addition to Ayers’ big hit in the sixth, Peters sparked the Cougars’ comeback in the fourth with a two-run double.

NFL sees signs fans are turned off by lockout By Barry Wilner

Mavs take series, headed to finals

continue to accelerate and impact on the ability of ownership to make an offer (the players) find attractive,” he said. Owners were presented the full range of plans for opening weekend, from the first game on Thursday night at Lambeau Field to commemorations of the Sept. 11 attacks on the first full Sunday of games. Those dates are not in jeopardy yet, but the longer the impasse, the more in danger they would become, particularly with the league’s marketing partners, sponsors and advertisers who must commit dollars to those events well in advance. “We’re not at an Armageddon date,” Eric Grubman, executive vice president of business operations for the NFL, told The Associated Press. “We’re not staring that in the face this week.” Several teams already have

begun to consider adjusting where they hold training camp. Fifteen teams trained last summer at complexes other than their in-season facilities, and some have deadlines as early as July 1 to decide whether to return to those locales or hold a truncated training camp at home. One day after canceling the rookie symposium scheduled for June 26 in Canton, Ohio — the first NFL event victimized by the lockout — Goodell reiterated the league’s intent to play a full schedule this season. He recognized the need not only for some sort of training camps but also for a free agency signing period once a new CBA is reached. “The uncertainty is something we have to consider in getting players ready to play, and we have talked about different concepts,” he said.

Martin St. Louis delivered inspiring pregame words in the locker room, then took the ice and scored two goals to help his team stay alive in the Eastern Conference finals with a 5-4 win over the Boston Bruins in Game 6 on Wednesday night. “He’s the heart and soul of our team,” rising young star Steven Stamkos said of St. Louis, a six-time All-Star who is one of three players remaining on the roster from Tampa Bay’s only Stanley Cup championship team from seven years ago. “He’s the first guy to step up and get the guys going. He’s obviously been through every type of experience and every single type of championship you could win, he’s been there. He’s won individual awards. He’s won the Stanley Cup and he’s always been a big part. He knows what to do and how to react in those situations. He stepped up before the game and said a few words, and just the respect he has from every single guy on the team, we take it to heart. ... He’s been our goto guy, and he was again.” Teddy Purcell also scored twice and resilient goalie

Tampa Bay Lightning’s Teddy Purcell (16) celebrates his second goal of the game with teammate Brett Clark during the second period in Game 6 of an NHL hockey Stanley Cup playoffs Eastern Conference final series against the Boston Bruins in Tampa, Fla., Wednesday. Dwayne Roloson weathered a hat trick by Boston’s David Krejci to force Game 7 in Boston on Friday night. The Bruins are seeking their first trip to the Stanley Cup finals in 21 years, and the Lightning will try to clinch their first appearance on hockey’s biggest stage since they won their title in 2004. The Western Conference champion Vancouver Canucks await the winner.

Anglers Continued from D1 Brown said parking at the resort could be an issue. “We’ll just have to park people on the road,” he said. On a trip up to some of the Cascade Lakes earlier this week, I discovered that Lava Lake was ice free and accessible, but also that snow was piled some 3 feet high in areas near the campgrounds. Still, officials with Hoodoo, which operates campgrounds in the Deschutes National Forest, expect to have most campgrounds at Lava Lake open in time for the busy weekend. “I wouldn’t say they’re snow free, but they can camp there if they want to,” said Carol Callahan, an employee for Lava Lake Lodge. “They can get their vehicles in.” John Garrison, a fishing guide in Central Oregon for more than 30 years and my fishing partner on this trip, was surprised at how much snow lined the narrow gravel road leading to the boat launch at Lava Lake. “I don’t remember ever seeing this much snow at Lava in late May,” Garrison said. Cascade Lakes Highway will remain closed from Mount Bachelor to Elk Lake through this weekend, according to Roger Olson, operations director for the Deschutes County Road Department. Olson added that Elk Lake Resort will open on Friday, but the lake remained covered by ice and snow as of Wednesday. Elsewhere in Central Oregon, Crane Prairie Reservoir, Wickiup Reservoir, Twin Lakes, Cultus Lake, Davis Lake, Odell Lake, Crescent Lake and Suttle Lake have all been open and accessible for the past few weeks. Campgrounds at those lakes are also open. Crane Prairie appears to be the hot early-season fishing spot for the second consecutive year. Many anglers have reported catches of large rainbow trout and brook trout, according to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Not to be overlooked is Cultus Lake, where anglers can fish

Tennis Continued from D1 With Mattek-Sands, it can be easy to forget about the tennis. But one of the women’s tour’s long-running novelty acts, all straight talk and wild outfits, is now backed by a game deserving of attention all its own. Mattek-Sands beat Varvara Lepchenko on Wednesday, 6-3, 2-6, 6-3, becoming the first U.S. woman in five years not named Venus or Serena Williams to reach the third round of the French Open. Shenay Perry, in 2006, was the last. In a matter of weeks, with her game rising and those of the Williams sisters idling with injuries, Mattek-Sands may be the highest-ranked U.S. woman. Yet there she was, all smiles and easy manners, talking less about her ranking, her victory or her next opponent — No. 10 Jelena Jankovic — than about what she wears and why. “What’s funny, in the world of entertainment, I’m pretty mellow, actually,” Mattek-Sands said. “There are people doing a lot more crazy stuff. It’s just tennis is so conservative that I wear some high socks and people are like, ‘Wow, that’s so different.’” Of course, her peers did not go backstage at the Moulin Rouge to try on costumes. They did not meet with the designer Alex Noble, a costume creator for Lady Gaga, to devise a dress for a Wimbledon player’s party made of tennis equipment — balls, racket string, whatever. “I don’t know that I would be able to play in a meat dress or

for big mackinaw (lake trout) as well as rainbow trout. Though it’s still a bit early in the season for fishing at Cultus, Garrison and I headed to the lake on Monday. Cultus is best fished early in the season, as it becomes extremely popular with water-skiers, wakeboarders and jet skiers in the summer. “You don’t want to go there on a weekend in July or August,” Garrison said. “There’s too many boats.” The water on Cultus was choppy on Monday, and gray sheets of rain and snow seemed to be heading our way as the wind blew across the lake. The guide powered his boat to the west. “If you get to a lake and it’s really windy, go to the opposite end of the lake, where the wind is coming from, and guess what?” Garrison said as we arrived at the west end of the lake. “Look how calm it is here.” Cultus Lake hosted a mackinaw derby this past weekend, and the event included 70 entries. According to Cultus Lake Resort owner Sandy Campbell, 17 fish were weighed in and the winning fish came in at 17 pounds, 9 ounces. Derby anglers fished with flashers, Rapalas or herring, Campbell said. “This is the best time of year for lake trout,” she said. “The water is warming up, they’re just starting to move around, and they’re hungry. There were some nice rainbows caught, too.” Fishing was pretty slow Monday at Cultus, and the weather did not help matters. Snow, hail, rain and fierce wind pounded the lake, with brief periods of warm sunshine. Several area streams open to fishing this Saturday as well, including the Upper Deschutes from Benham Falls upstream

anything,” she said, smiling. “I was thinking of stapling some bacon on my shoulder or something, but I don’t know how that would work out in the sun.” Mattek-Sands stands in sharp contrast to the tall, assemblyline models of today’s tour, all lankiness and ponytails, who tend to shuffle along the baseline and peep when exerting themselves on every fiercely whipped forehand. She is a relative fireplug at 5 feet 6 inches. Now 26 and No. 34 in the world, she has the highest ranking of her career and only her second foray into the third round of her 21 major tournaments. She reached the fourth round at Wimbledon in 2008, but her biggest splash in the majors has been as a sartorial seductress — wearing short shorts, push-up tops, animal prints, cowboy hats and anything else that might get people looking and talking. “You see two girls, blond hair, wearing the exact same thing head to toe,” she said at the 2010 French Open. “If I can’t tell them apart, no way a fan’s going to tell them apart. So it just brings, you know, something unique to the game.” This year, Mattek-Sands (she married Justin Sands, a burly, bearded former college football player, in 2008, and his name is tattooed on her ring finger) beat Spain’s Arantxa Parra Santonja in three sets in the first round. She wore a bright-yellow tank top, black visor, black shorts and black knee socks. On Wednesday, playing before a group of people — “crowd” would be overstating it — at

Court 3, she wore a pink shortsleeve shirt, a black cap, black skirt and black knee-high socks. She grounded the ensemble with black-and-neon-yellow shoes. For the first time, the curved black patches under the eyes featured a scripted “B” on them. Some peers in the locker room think the eye black is painted on. “I’m like, ‘No guys. I don’t have that much time,’ ” MattekSands said. She mostly has toned her choices and sharpened her game. She opened the year ranked 59th and made the final at Hobart, an Australian Open tuneup. She lost in the first round of the year’s first major, then made the semifinals of February’s Paris indoor event. She has been surprisingly strong on clay the past month. At Madrid, she beat the former French Open champions Ana Ivanovic and Francesca Schiavone before falling to No. 6 Li Na in the quarterfinals. At Rome, she beat the 15th-seeded Flavia Pennetta in her first match. Her match on Court 3 on Wednesday was as a three-set tale of two U.S. stereotypes: One, a straight-talking blonde with the look-at-me outfits and bold tattoos. The other, a plug-away immigrant, quietly working her way to citizenship. Lepchenko, a 25-year-old lefthander from Uzbekistan, moved to the U.S. in 2000. She calls Allentown, Pa., her home. She has no U.S. passport or citizenship, but is billed at tournaments as an American player. She trains under the U.S. Tennis Association and its head of player development, Patrick

PEARL, Miss. — Anthony Rendon’s sweet swing has been one of college baseball’s most productive the past three seasons, making the Rice third baseman one of the leading candidates to be the No. 1 overall pick in next month’s Major League Baseball draft. But actually seeing that swing is becoming quite the rarity. Rendon’s season has been defined more by injuries and walks than home runs. Rendon leads all of NCAA Division I with 76 walks so far this season, as pitchers have avoided him at nearly all cost. Tossing the bat toward the dugout for a slow jog toward first base isn’t his first choice, but if this season’s taught him anything, it’s patience. “Of course as a hitter, I want to go up there

to Little Lava Lake, Fall River downstream from Fall River Falls and the Metolius River upstream from Allingham Bridge. Also, bait is allowed on the Crooked River starting Saturday. The weather forecast does not look much better for this weekend, with a chance of rain in the outlook for Saturday and Sunday. But fishing prospects remain good at most lakes. Just bring the rain gear, and remember that Memorial Day weekend is the UNOFFICIAL start of summer.

Family fishing event set for Saturday The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will host a youth fishing event at the Pine Nursery Pond this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The event is free and no registration is required. The event is part of the ODFW Outdoors Program and is designed to introduce young people and their families to the fun of fishing. ODFW will provide rods, reels, tackle and bait for use by youngsters who are learning to fish or do not have their own fishing equipment. Participants are also welcome to bring their own equipment. ODFW staff and volunteers will be on site to help participants learn how to bait a hook, cast a rod and land a fish. ODFW will stock the pond

McEnroe. “I’ve been playing for the U.S. for a long time, probably more than six years,” Lepchenko said. “I’ve considered every time I come out and play a tournament I represent the United States. Not as a citizen yet, but it’s just a matter of time and paperwork.” Lepchenko has spent most of her career milling around the 100 mark in the world rankings. Currently 77th, she is part of a scrum of American women who have settled in well behind the Williams sisters and Mattek-Sands. The group includes Christina McHale (79), Melanie Oudin (88) and Coco Vandeweghe (89). None play with the panache of Mattek-Sands. Against Lepchenko, she overcame a second-set lull, the type of energetic lapse that threatens her performances. She found fire during the break, and gave a lesson in aggressiveness to start the third set. On the first point of the third set, with Lepchenko serving, Mattek-Sands hit a bold return and followed it toward the net. Lepchenko’s ball struck the net cord and, somehow, MattekSands’ racket. It landed, in, and Lepchenko took another swipe. Mattek-Sands, a veteran doubles player, spanked it back for the point. Love-15. The next point, Mattek-Sands rushed in to take a lazy ball on the fly. Love-30. All attitude and ferocity, she went on to break Lepchenko twice to take a 3-0 lead, then did it again for the victory. “I would like to do that the whole match rather than just in the third set,” Mattek-Sands said.

COLLEGE BASEBALL and knock the crap out of the ball,” Rendon said. “That’s what I want to do. But I can’t go out there and hurt my teammates by swinging at balls in the dirt. You’ve got to take it how it is.” The 6-foot, 190-pound junior hit .388 with 20 homers as a freshman in 2009 and followed that with a .394 average, 26 homers and 85 RBIs as a sophomore. This season, Rendon’s numbers have been much more pedestrian. He’s batting .325 with five homers and 34 RBIs, though his on-base percentage is still a lofty .524 due to the consistent stream of walks. Part of the offensive letdown was expected. Power numbers are down throughout college

baseball this season because of the new NCAAmandated metal bats that are much less potent than their previous counterparts. But there have been other issues. He missed several months over the summer and fall after suffering a fractured ankle while playing for Team USA. Then a nagging shoulder injury, which Rendon described as a slight muscle strain in the back of his throwing arm, has relegated him to designated hitter instead of his usual spot at third base for much of the season. It’s been a difficult adjustment. “Just the fact that you’re only in the game every 30 minutes or so, you’ve got a lot of things running through your mind,” Rendon said. “When you’re playing in the field, you forget about at-bats, because you’ve got to make plays. It’s frustrating because you don’t get in that usual rhythm.”

with 600 legal-sized rainbow trout for the event, in addition to the bluegill already in the pond. All anglers 17 years old and younger are invited to attend. Anglers 13 and younger can fish for free. A juvenile angling license is required for youths 14 to 17. There is a two-fish-per-day limit. The Pine Nursery Pond is located in Pine Nursery Park in northeast Bend. From U.S. Highway 97, take the Empire Boulevard exit. Head east on Empire for 1½ miles and turn left on Purcell.

FISHING

Gary Lewis / For The Bulletin

Tim McLagan, of Bend, landed this lake trout during Odell Lake’s mackinaw derby last week.

Digging deep pays off with mackinaw catch at Odell Lake GARY LEWIS

n the afternoon, the fog rolled in and the wind that blew over the top of the Cascades funneled down between the Cascade Summit and Maklaks Mountain and pushed up the waves. Only the north shore was visible below the clouds. At that moment, my 9-pound, 9-ounce mackinaw held ninth place in the Odell Lake Lodge and Resort’s annual Mac Derby. Bob Bennett’s 11-pound, 9ouncer was in sixth place. In the lead was a 21-pound, 11-ounce mackinaw. With 10 places in the derby, we had a good chance to finish in the money if the action would slow down a little bit. Although there had been a lot of fish caught over the past few days between 25 feet and 45 feet deep, we were picking up our lake trout between 100 and 120 feet deep. When the tip of his rod began to tremble, Tim McLagan grabbed it out of the rod holder and popped the line out of the downrigger clip. He brought the fish up slowly to prevent it from bursting its air bladder on the way up. A 25-incher — McLagan released it. We made another turn to follow the course that had paid off with our past two bites. Robert Troy dropped his downrigger ball back down to 120 feet, with the other line clipped off at 90 feet. Behind the boat, a long way down, our J-Plugs did their work. They wobbled and rattled while we watched the depth finder and tried to run the baits

up the slopes of the submerged canyons and back down again. From time to time, Bob called out the depths of fish marked on the screen. “There’s one at 48 feet, another at 67 feet.” It was 3:45 when the rod shivered in its holder and the line popped off the clip. Robert Troy grabbed the rod. About 120 feet down, a big fish shook his head and the battle was joined. Line burned off the reel as the fish arced away from the boat. Troy pumped it up, then reeled down. Five minutes later, the fish made its last run when it saw the boat. On the next pass, it went headfirst, thrashing into the net. I dialed Jon Ditgen while Troy kept his netted fish in the water. In a few minutes, Ditgen’s boat showed through the fog. When the boat was alongside, Troy handed the net over. The big fish pulled the scale to 15 pounds. I did the math. My fish had dropped back to 10th place. Anything bigger than 10 pounds would bump my mack into 11th and out of the derby. At the pre-derby angler meeting, Ditgen promoted a catchand-release ethic. With cell phones or radios, the angler can call for a check of the catch, then the fish can be released if the angler doesn’t want to keep it. In the course of the day, when Ditgen gets a call, he gets a direction and description of the boat and heads across the lake to weigh and measure and watch the angler release the fish, back to deep water. A hundred feet down, a J-Plug wiggled its temptation. It dug, it shimmied, it rattled, the tip of the rod pulsed and the downrigger cable hummed in the wind. We had an hour and a half left until the 6 o’clock horn and the end of the day’s fishing when the rod tip plunged toward the water and the line pulled away from

the downrigger clip. Line blistered off the reel. The big lake trout wallowed and Tim gained line before the fish ran again. Five head-shaking, armwrenching minutes later, the fish was alongside the boat. “I don’t know why some people say these fish don’t fight,” Tim said. Jon Ditgen’s boat showed through the fog. Tim’s trophy pulled the scale to 18 pounds, 3 ounces for second place in the derby. That booted me and my fish out of contention. The next day, an even bigger mackinaw was brought to the net, which pushed Tim’s lake trout back to third place for the finish, Robert Troy’s to eighth place and Bob Bennett’s into never-never land. Sunday afternoon, at the awards ceremony, Ole Hanson’s fish, at 21 pounds, 11 ounces, placed first. David Davey weighed in with an 18-pound, 8ounce lake trout and Tim McLagan’s fish took third. Odell’s lake trout fishery was established by stocking efforts in the early 1900s, and Oregon’s current state record laker was caught in Odell in 1984. That fish tipped the scales at 40 pounds, 8 ounces. Most of the fish run between 5 and 15 pounds, but the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has recorded lake trout in the 50-pound range. Fishermen come from all over the Northwest for the chance at boating one. Anytime between the first of May and the end of October, any angler on the lake has a good chance at the new state record.

This classic New Zealand pattern came into use about the time of Edward III, who stepped down from his throne to marry Mrs. Simpson. If Wallis Simpson could catch the King of England, the thinking went, perhaps a fly named after her could catch the king of trout. Suggestive of the cockabully (a common baitfish) and crayfish, the Mrs. Simpson should be fished on a sinking line with a jerky stop-start retrieve. It can be tied with a red body or with a yellow or black body. Red and black are used at night, while yellow is favored during the day. Tie this pattern with black thread on a No. 2-8 streamer hook. For the tail, use black or red squirrel tail. Tie the body with red, black or yellow chenille. Se-

Forecast damp for holiday hiking, camping By Lydia Hoffman The Bulletin

Summer is supposedly around the corner, but winter is trying to hold on through Memorial Day weekend this year. There is still too much snow for camping or hiking in the higher elevations. Weekend weather forecasts call for snow in higher elevations and a chance of rain in lower elevations, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Snowlines in general are between 4,900 and 6,000 feet. The Cascade Lakes Highway normally opens for Memorial Day weekend, but not this year. There will be limited access to the highway starting Friday from the south to Elk Lake, said Chris Sabo, a U.S. Forest Service trails specialist. The gate will remain closed just past Mt. Bachelor. Elk Lake Resort is expected to open Friday. Campgrounds at Elk Lake are not open yet, and the lake is still frozen, with limited parking and places to turn trailers around. Contact the resort for more information about access to the area. Dutchman Flat Sno-park is the last holdout for snowmobilers this spring. See Trails / E3

Swamp Wells Trail may not have the name recognition or popularity of other area trails, but that also means you may just have it all to yourself.

Crook County senior runner-up in national poetry competition Crook County High School senior Nathaniel Dunaway, 18, recently competed at the National Poetry Out Loud poetry recitation competition in Washington, D.C. Dunaway earned the opportunity in March after winning the state Poetry Out Loud contest in Salem, beating 24 other competitors from high schools. After the first two rounds in Region 3, which includes Texas, Montana, Washington, Alaska, New Mexico, Hawaii and several other states, Dunaway advanced to the third round, which whittled the original number from 17 to eight. From that group of eight, three were selected to advance to the final round on April 29. Dunaway was selected as a runner-up in this round, earning $1,000 for himself and $500 for Crook County High School. Contact: www.poetryoutloud .org. — From staff reports

Widow’s outbursts In TV pilots, paranormal is the new normal suggest a serious issue By Stuart Elliott

New York Times News Service

Dear Abby: My dad died four years ago. He and Mom had many friends and did everything together, including raising nine children. Mom was always in charge of things. Dad reinforced any decisions she made and vice versa. Since his death, Mom has become progressively more bitter. Eight children are alive today, and we all avoid her if we can. She cries because no one stops by to see her, but if we do, she has a long chore list waiting. I have my own home, work two jobs and don’t want what little time I have with her spent working as her slave. If by chance I feel brave enough to take her out in public, she embarrasses me with her verbal outbursts. She waits until I start to pay, then asks loudly, “Are you sure you have enough money in the bank to pay for that?” Another time, she stopped a complete stranger, told him I was single and asked if he wanted to know my bra size! I have tried talking to her. She just gets mad and makes my life even more miserable. Mom will be 70 in a few months. I want to enjoy her and what time we have left together, but I find myself running away from her wrath! I don’t want to live without her, but I don’t want to live with her, either. Please tell me what to do. — Driven Away in Georgia Dear Driven Away: Was your mother always this way? If not, please understand that she may be seriously ill. You have described some symptoms of the onset of dementia. Instead of shunning her, you and your siblings need to encourage her to see her doctor because she needs a thorough physical and neurological examination. Offering you to a strange man was extremely inappropriate,

DEAR ABBY and her chore list may indicate that she’s no longer able to do what’s on it for herself. Your mother NEEDS all of you right now. Go with her to the doctor, and be sure her physician knows what’s been going on. It may take insistence from all of you to get her there. Please don’t let her down. You have my sympathy, and so does she. Dear Abby: I am a single dad of three kids. For the past three years I have promised to take them to Disney World. The first year, my youngest got sick and had to have surgery. The following year, I had a stroke and was laid up for a while. This year, as I was on my way to get the tickets, my car broke down. I work so hard to give my kids what they need, but I can’t give them a vacation they can remember for the rest of their lives. I feel like I have let them down. How can I make this feeling go away? — No Magic For Us in Ohio Dear No Magic: For one thing, stop beating yourself up over circumstances that are beyond your control. As a single parent, you are giving your children love, support and memories of a caring father that WILL last a lifetime. You’ll take them to Disney World at a time when it is feasible. Until then, forgive yourself for not having been able to deliver on your promise immediately.

It was not so long ago that commercials were filled with fantastical characters like green giants, flying maids and white knights. For the 2011-12 television season, it will be the shows, not the ads, that feature creatures out of fairy tales and ghost stories. Fans of the supernatural will be superserved by the five big broadcast networks as they add to their prime-time schedules series like “Grimm,” on NBC; “Once Upon a Time,” on ABC; “The Secret Circle,” on The CW; “Terra Nova,” on Fox; and “A Gifted Man,” on CBS, which will join returning shows like “Fringe” (Fox) and “Supernatural” (The CW). In fact, at the same time on Fridays, “Grimm,” a detective series with a twist out of Grimm’s fairy tales, is to face off against “Fringe,” about a parallel universe, and “Supernatural,” devoted to a pair of demon-busting brothers. The new fantasy series are among 27 newcomers for fall that television executives have presented to advertisers, who will soon decide in which series to buy billions of dollars’ worth of commercial time — and which to bypass. There are additional scary, fairy, fantasy shows waiting to be introduced in midseason, among them “Awake” on NBC and “Alcatraz” and “Touch” on Fox. The networks that appeal to Spanish-speaking viewers are also climbing aboard the spectral bandwagon. For instance, Galavision, a Spanish-language cable channel, is planning a series called “Kdabra,” about a mysterious teenager.

NBC

Fantastical series have long been popular, but they’re often ratings flops; witness NBC’s “The Cape,” which lasted just nine episodes. The trend is an escapist sign of the unsettled times, said Shari Anne Brill, a longtime media industry analyst, who noted that Walt Disney’s first animated feature film, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” was released in the Depression year of 1937. The focus is on “magic, happy endings, things people can’t quite see,” said Brill, who runs a consultancy, Shari Anne Brill Media. And the darker manifestations of the trend, like the zombie drama “The Walking Dead” on AMC, “are a metaphor for our fears,” she added. Fantasy has long been a popular programming genre, as evidenced by shows like “The Twilight Zone,” “Kolchak: The Night Stalker,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “The X Files,” “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Ghost Whisperer.” It has even been played for laughs in sitcoms like “Topper,” based on the “Topper” movies, and “The Charmings.” But “it’s usually not a strong draw” in the ratings, said Lisa

Quan, vice president and director of audience analysis at Magna Global, part of the Mediabrands division of the Interpublic Group of Companies. For example, several new series in a fantastic vein during the 201011 season were canceled, among them “No Ordinary Family” and “V,” on ABC, and “The Event” and “The Cape,” on NBC. As a result, “it’s kind of a stretch for the networks” to schedule so many series of this type, Quan said. Longtime television research analyst Steven Sternberg agreed that such shows “almost never succeed on broadcast TV.” Sternberg, who writes a blog, The Sternberg Report, said that “Once Upon a Time,” for prime-time Sunday, “doesn’t impress me.”

Marc Berman, a staff writer and television analyst at the trade publication Adweek, described “Once Upon a Time” as “an early casualty” of the new season and predicted that “Grimm” could be “the first victim” of the cancellation Grim Reaper. And the Vulture blog of New York magazine last week pronounced “Grimm” one of the “five worst-looking new shows of the fall season.” Why, then, the growing appeal of plots that are out of this world? For one thing, the plots in this world — about the police, detectives, doctors, lawyers — have been told and retold again. And because there were no breakthrough hits during the 2010-11 season, the networks seem willing to gamble with some series that seek to woo viewers with offbeat concepts. “CBS is always good at changing it up,” Quan said, citing its new series like “Person of Interest,” a Thursday drama about a mysterious billionaire who joins with a former CIA agent to thwart crimes before they happen. Here’s another trend evident in the programs for the fall: 11 new sitcoms, “the most in the category in five years,” Berman said. Networks like ABC and NBC are adding comedy blocks, and The CW will add a reality series with comedic elements, “H8R.”

Kris Humphries of the New Jersey Nets and reality star Kim Kardashian are engaged, according to People magazine. The two have been dating for six months.

Kim Kardashian engaged to Nets forward Humphries The Associated Press NEW YORK — Another hoops star will join the Kardashian clan. People magazine reported Wednesday that reality star Kim Kardashian is engaged to her boyfriend of six months, New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries. Sister Khloe Kardashian and Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom were married in 2009. Kim Kardashian told People

that she was in “shock” when she entered her Beverly Hills, Calif., home last week to discover Humphries on bended knee with “will you marry me” spelled out in rose petals. Humphries, 26, gave Kardashian, 30, a 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring. The family stars in the E! reality show “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and spinoffs, including “Khloe and Lamar.”

Trails Continued from E1 Other sno-parks are now done for the season. Dutchman still has a good 7 to 8 feet of snow. Snowmobilers should expect heavy use and limited parking for Memorial Day weekend. Snowmobilers at Dutchman should look out for signs guiding them on a detour directly to the Dutchman Flat area instead of to the Cascade Lakes Highway. Bulldozers attempting to plow the highway have chewed up the snow, Sabo said. Sabo said the Forest Service is asking all users to be extra courteous for this busy weekend. He suggested that non-motorized users park at Mt. Bachelor instead of Dutchman Sno-park and use the common corridor to access trails. Sabo said Forest Road 16 in the Three Creeks Lake area still has access for snow users, but also has limited parking or space for trailers to turn around. Users should expect to see some woodcutting traffic.

Backcountry For those out in the backcountry this weekend, extra caution and preparation are advisable. Sabo said there have been snow slides of varying sizes, adding that the possibility of avalanche is higher than usual for Memorial Day weekend. In the Sisters area, the Black Butte Trail is mostly clear, except for snow the last quarter mile. In the Bend area, the Tumalo Falls trail is open up to the falls area, but the trails beyond are still snowbound. Lower elevation trails in good condition include Phil’s Trail, the Deschutes River trails, the

Metolius River trails and Peterson Ridge. The lower part of Peter Skene Ogden Trail has also been cleared. Expect the trails at lower elevations to be busy this weekend.

Cluttered trails In general, trails close to town have had maintenance, but those in the backcountry are likely to be blocked by fallen trees. Expect moderate to large numbers of trees blown down in the Three Sisters Wilderness area and in the Mount Jefferson area, where they have been damaged by fire or beetles. Hikers should be aware that trees may still be dropping, and windy days may be more dangerous on the trails. South of Bend, the road to East and Paulina lakes will be open. Cultus Lake is also open. For campground availability in Deschutes National Forest, Sabo suggested checking out the Hoodoo website, http://hoodoo.com, and using the campgrounds pulldown menu. The McKenzie River Highway is closed to all users. There is limited plowing under way. Trails in the Crescent Ranger District are melting out, but no maintenance has been done on them yet, and there may not be much trail access due to downed trees and some remaining snow. As you venture out this weekend, remember that a Northwest Forest Pass is required for some areas, and dogs in the Deschutes River corridor are required to be on leash from May 15 to Sept. 15. Note also that dogs are restricted from the Bend Municipal Watershed. Lydia Hoffman can be reached at 541-383-0358 or at lhoffman@bendbulletin.com.

Happy birthday for Thursday, May 26, 2011: This year, you open up and express a new vitality and strength. You might be hard to stop when focused on a goal or busy with friends. Commitments involving groups become possible. You enjoy a general sense of ease and direction. If you are single, friendship and romance will be closely tied in some fashion. If you are attached, remember that your sweetie is your friend too. ARIES is your natural cheerleader. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH You suddenly feel re-energized. You wonder if your preference will work for others. Good question. Listen to your instincts when dealing with others. Some people find you unusually unpredictable of late. They will get used to it. Tonight: Whatever knocks your socks off. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Know that you are better off evaluating rather than acting. You might want to consider veering in a new direction. Right now, play out your options in your mind, without sharing them. Soon you will know what is right for you. Then you will share. Tonight: Vanishing while you can. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You are full of fun and energy. Somehow you might have to break some patterns that others are vested in you following. Understand what is

impossible to change. You might need to head in another direction. Tonight: Where your friends are. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Be willing to take a stand and head in a new direction. Recognize what is happening behind the scenes with someone you care about. Listen to a higher-up, parent or authority figure. You need to follow through on a request here, if you don’t want any flak. Tonight: A must appearance. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Break precedence once more. What you come up with could be very exciting and unexpected. Consider a walk on the wild side — in your terms, mentally break past restrictive thinking. You know what you want. You know where you are going. Tonight: Wherever there is great music. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Work with a partner who suddenly becomes so proactive that you might not know how to handle this person. Go with the moment. You could be jolted by the outcome as well. Think positively. Tonight: In the throes of the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Defer to others without any expectations. When the unexpected does occur, you won’t be as surprised. You might be quite interested as others reveal themselves. Stay connected with some basic precepts and understand others’ expectations. Tonight: Just accept rather than judge. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Dive into your day-today life as if there is no tomorrow and there were no yesterday.

Can you put yourself 100 percent into the moment? Does this not have something to do with the true art of living? Recognize if you cannot stay present, too. Tonight: Soak in a hot tub. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Your mind nearly illustrates every sentence you hear. Your creativity and imagination are off the charts. Some people might find it difficult to grasp your fleeting ideas. Not everyone is on the same wavelength as you. Tonight: Think and act as if it were Friday night. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Your ability to move past disruption on the home front could be important. On the other hand, you might want to toss yourself right into it. Be sensitive to the consequences here. Instead of being so mum, share. Tonight: Stay close to home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You might want to discuss a situation more openly. Your assumptions, though seemingly grounded to you, might not be when you get into a discussion. Understanding where others come from could be significant. Tonight: Make merry with some friends. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Curb a need to be possessive and touchy. No matter how you feel and what goes on, detach and at least make an attempt to take in the whole picture. You might want to try to walk in another person’s shoes as well. Laughter surrounds the moment. Tonight: Treat yourself to flowers or a favorite dessert. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Swamp Wells Continued from E1 “I will,” I enthused, but I didn’t realize how soon I was in for a little bloodletting. The trail to Swamp Wells was a little loose, in part because the horses’ hooves had just turned the soil a bit, but once I reached Swamp Wells Trail proper, the ground was nice and firm, just the right amount of dampness from recent rains to hold down the “moon dust,” as so many refer to Central Oregon’s dirt, which is kind of like a gray baby powder, A few pedal rotations later, I noticed a herd of deer, who of course had seen me first. Some started to turn tail and run, others eyed me cautiously. I quickly pulled out my camera and — still pedaling — attempted to take aim and fire. Based on recent experience, I’m going to advise against taking photos from a moving mountain bike. If I could piece together why I ended up in a pile of bicycle, plant matter, dirt and limbs, I could probably have avoided the mess altogether. The short answer is “multitasking under the influence of wildlife.” The deer headed for the hills as I picked myself up and put my chain back on the sprocket. Figuring the scraped knee was fine, I climbed back on the saddle and continued down the trail. This may have been where my paranoia set in. I’d once heard that where there’s deer, there are cougars, and it hadn’t been long since officials put down a cougar that had been hanging around the Deschutes River Woods area. I began wondering if a cougars had sniffers as potent as sharks, could get a whiff of my bloody knee and make ready to pounce on a weakened member of the human herd? Maybe not rational, but hey, that’s the kind of thing that can start zinging around your mind when alone in the woods with no one wiser around to tell you otherwise. On I went. In total, Swamp Wells Trail stretches 21 miles from Horse Butte, to my north, southward to the rim of Newberry Crater. According to that week’s trail

report from Deschutes National Forest Trails Specialist Chris Sabo, the snow level on the trail was about 5,700 feet. Given the length of my ride, the only snow I saw was on distant Cascades peaks. According to the Forest Service’s website (www.fs.usda .gov/centraloregon), the long trail can be subdivided into shorter lengths than 21 miles. The north segment, from Horse Butte to Swamp Wells, is 11 miles in length. The middle segment from Swamp Wells to Forest Road 9710 is six miles. And the south, from Forest Road 9710 to the Crater Rim Trail, is four miles. Since I had about a two-hour window to ride, I decided to go south, a mostly uphill ride, about an hour and 15 minutes, then turn around. I came to another of the forest roads that intersect the trail. A red car was parked there, classic rock music blasting, with two guys standing near it. One waved to me, said something like, “You’re OK,” but the other standing right alongside the trail wouldn’t meet my eye. Perhaps, that disarming little voice told me, they were the shooters I’d been hearing popping off rounds. Nothing unusual about that in this part of the forest. I waved hello, but sped up until I reached a steeper section pep-

burned area. I didn’t have time to make it all the way to Swamp Wells because my allotted window was closing, but when I wasn’t making myself paranoid, I found it enjoyable. Heading north again was the best. This meant long stretches of downhill riding, just the right incline to maintain speed without pedaling, but not so fast you’re taking chances on hitting rocks. I heard sporadic gunfire, but when I reached the forest road where my two new friends had been, they were sitting in their car talking. Later, I told my sometime outing companion Map Guy where I’d gone. He said “That’s way out there,” and told me I shouldn’t have ridden alone. “Why?” “You could have been eaten by a coyote.” He was kidding, and I’ll definitely be going back to Swamp Wells Trail again, but I’ll allow more time and take along someone else to donate blood to the coyotes, cougars and whatever else may be lurking out there.

For most direct care workers, the job is difficult yet rewarding. But low wages and a lack of benefits strain retention, even as the need for their services increases.

Never too late Class at Fleet Feet Sports gives 40-plus crowd a chance to run By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

Bette Jackson never thought she’d be a runner, or someone who worked out. She had a job, raised her kids and never considered exercise. But like many people in midlife, weight, inactivity and age started adding up. She realized she needed to do something about her health. She became borderline hypoglycemic, a step toward diabetes, she said, and her family history includes diabetes, high cholesterol and osteoporosis. “I’m making those changes,” said Jackson, 58. Last year, she lost 50 pounds on a Weight Watchers diet and established a modest walking routine. But over the winter, she found herself becoming a couch potato and chastising herself for it. One day she drove by Fleet Feet Sports and saw a sign for a “learn to walk” class. She signed up. Other classes followed. And on a snowy day in February, Jackson went on her first run ever. Looping through Drake Park, the run was interspersed with walking. See Running / F5

iscussions about ensuring an adequate health care workforce generally focus on the supply of doctors and nurses. But when Americans age, it’s generally someone much lower on the health care ladder they rely on for their care. Up to 80 percent of all paid care for the elderly in the U.S. is provided by certified nursing assistants and home health aides, who toil away at physically and emotionally challenging jobs with little pay or appreciation. But with the graying of America, the need for their services is poised to skyrocket. From 2008 to 2018, the deMONEY mand for direct care workers is expected to grow by 34 percent, requiring another 1.46 million workers. Oregon is expected to need another 8,000 to 10,000 direct care workers by 2018, including some 400 in Deschutes, Crook and Jefferson counties alone. Certified nursing assistants, known as CNAs, and home health aides rank among the top 10 fastest-growing professions in the country, and within six years will outnumber grade school teachers, fast food workers and registered nurses. But there are serious concerns about the system’s ability to train, hire and retain those workers. “Everybody nods their heads but no one really responds to the argument that these are poor workers and they’re exploited and they should be paid more, even though that’s true,” said Steven Dawson, president of the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute, known as PHI. “What we really need is to create models where the direct care workers and the family caregivers together are supported so they can play a more valueadded role in the system.” See Direct care / F4

After hours, CentraTel is your link to your doctor It’s the middle of the night and your kid is sick. You call the doctor. Who answers? Or, it’s the weekend and your husband’s heart is beating too fast. Or your wife goes into labor after dinner. Whatever the reason for the after-hours call, the person who answers likely isn’t at your doctor’s office. Instead, the person on the other end of the line is often sitting in a nondescript brick building on Greenwood Avenue in downtown Bend. CentraTel, an answering service, handles after-hours and weekend calls for the majority of medical practices in Central

Oregon, said owner Sam Carpenter. If you’ve called Central Oregon Pediatric Associates, High Lakes Health Care, East Cascade Women’s Group or many others after hours, then you’ve likely spoken to one of CentraTel’s operators. In all, CentraTel handles calls for about 150 medical and dental offices in Central Oregon. It additionally takes calls for medical practices from across the country. The company has accounts in every U.S. time zone. Answering services are common in medical practice. After all, many doctors need to be available 24 hours a day but can’t afford to hire someone to staff the phones all night long. See Answering / F6

N Need more iron in your diet? Try cooking with a cast iron pan, especially when the ingredients are high in acidity

Survey reveals popular veggies, not-so-popular veggies in U.S. diet About 70 percent of Americans fail to eat five servings of fruit and vegetables every day, according to a survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center. Five servings is the amount recommended by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The most popular vegetables eaten by survey respondents were the “starchy” ones, such as potatoes, which were eaten at least once a week by 83 percent of the 1,234 respondents. Also popular were salad greens, eaten weekly by 78 percent of the respondents. The Consumer Reports survey said only 7 percent of the people polled ate eggplant and only 4 percent ate bok choy. Other unpopular vegetables included parsnips, okra,

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

Cooking with a cast iron pan can increase the amount of iron absorbed into food, and therefore, one’s diet. The catch is that cast iron pans can require more oil — fat — in the cooking process, so food doesn’t stick to the pan. The quantity of iron one gets from cooking in cast iron can’t be generalized, said Garrett Berdan, a registered dietitian, culinary educator and consultant in Bend, because it depends on the food’s acidity and the time the food spends in contact with the iron pan. The Journal of the American Dietetic Association published an article in 1986 looking at a variety of foods cooked in cast iron. Acidic foods, such as tomato sauce, showed the highest absorption of iron, from 0.35 mg in its uncooked form to 7.38 mg once cooked in iron. Apple sauce’s iron content jumped from 0.61 mg to 5.77 mg, after being cooked in cast iron, Berdan said. Lower-acid foods, like eggs, aren’t going to soak up much iron from the pan, he said. But saute some chicken breasts and create a pan sauce with tomatoes, wine, vinegar or orange juice, and that acidic liquid base will pick up the iron, he said. (A classic, spring recipe he recommends is Chicken Piccata. See recipe.) St. Charles Bend registered dietitian RanDee Anshutz said people who don’t get enough iron in their diets, or who are anemic, could benefit from cooking with iron. But, “if a person has a condition called hemochromatosis, basically excess iron buildup in the blood stream, they would not benefit from this and should avoid it,” she said. As for the extra oil question: Anshutz said a pan that’s not in its finest form will require the use of more fat or oil to cook. “The key to using cast iron pans without the excess fat concern is to have a pan that’s in good condition, with no pits, cracks, dents, etc., in the pan,” she said. “By seasoning the pan well initially and proper care thereafter, the pan will actually be fairly nonstick and a lot of oil will

A little bit of cooking spray should actually work fine in a well-seasoned cast iron pan that is in good condition.” Seasoning a pan, Berdan said, protects the iron from rusting and cultivates a nonstick surface. “The best way to season a cast iron pan is to smear the inside floor and sides of the pan with lard and place in a 200 degree oven for two to three hours,” he said. Does it have to be lard? “I know, right? LARD? Unfortunately, yes, because it is more stable in the prolonged heat for seasoning. Actually, I bet coconut oil would work well. … Most resources say not to use liquid oils because they are unstable, they get sticky, and

Dust the chicken with salt and pepper and dredge it through the flour. Melt half of the butter and olive oil in a cast iron pan, then cook half of the chicken until its browned on each side. Transfer it to a plate and repeat the same directions with the remaining butter, oil and chicken. Mix lemon juice, stock and capers in the pan and bring it to a boil. Put all the chicken back into the mixture and simmer for five minutes. Remove the chicken when it’s cooked and place in serving dish. Whisk the sauce left in the pan and then pour it over the chicken, and garnish with parsley. — Adapted from a recipe on www.foodnetwork.com

they could smoke.” Once the lard has baked for a couple of hours, remove the pan, let it cool, and wipe out all of the excess fat with paper towels. Or, he said, ask your grandma how she did it. Caring for the cast iron pan comes with rules, too: Clean the pan only with warm water and just a touch of soap only when absolutely necessary. “Too much soap and scrubbing can wear off the seasoning. An iron pan can be re-seasoned,” he said. “Thrift stores are a great place to find pans in good enough shape to re-season and use.” Anne Aurand can be reached at 541-383-0304 or at aaurand@ bendbulletin.com.

Direct care workers: Who’s caring for our loved ones?

‘Trench work’

Direct care workers in the U.S. are predominately women with a high school education working for low wages.

Denice Russell, 51, has worked the front lines of health care in Bend for 16 years. She answered a classified ad in the newspaper offering a free training program to become a nursing assistant in a local nursing home and found her calling. “A lot of people call it trench work. I heard that a lot working in the nursing home,” she said. “It has to be in your heart. You have to enjoy taking care of people and helping people.” Russell now works for Partners in Care as a home health aide, traveling throughout Central Oregon to help patients who simply can’t get by on their own. Some days it might be helping them transition from using a wheelchair to a walker. Other days it might be helping them eat their meals or get to the bathroom. In her many years on the job, she’s stacked firewood, fed pets and written letters for her clients. Three years ago, she was caring for an older lady who was recovering from a stroke. As they sat together on her couch, the lady kept staring at the top of the stairs. “I asked, ‘Would you like to go upstairs?’” Russell recounted. “So we worked on it, and we worked on it.” At first they climbed a few steps at a time, making progress to the first landing eight steps up. With Russell’s help she would move her hands from baluster to baluster. Within three weeks, she was able to make it up the entire 18 steps to the top. “She got into her garden bathtub and just sat and soaked,” Russell said. “That was one of the highlights (of my career), to see the look on her face.” With so many years of experience, Russell has seen plenty of home aides and CNAs overwhelmed by the difficulty of the job. With low pay and few benefits, the ones that stay are those who find satisfaction in helping others. “It’s not a job,” she said. “It has to be something you want to do.”

Low wages, few benefits It’s definitely not a high-paying job. In 2009, the median hourly wage for direct care workers was $10.58, a third less than the median U.S. hourly wage of $15.95. In 70 percent of U.S. states, average wages for direct care workers were under 200 percent of the federal poverty level. And despite the crucial role they play in the health care system, 28 percent of direct care workers do not have health insurance. “These health care jobs are notorious for their lack of adequate health insurance despite very high rates of on-the-job injury and a high incidence of chronic illness among this workforce,” said Dorie Seavey, PHI director of policy research. “Without better health coverage for home care workers, our nation will have considerable difficulty attracting a stable, qualified workforce to support elders and people with disabilities who want to remain in their homes and communities.” Nursing assistant and home health jobs are among the most dangerous in the country, ranking fourth for the number of injuries incurred per hour. Aides often incur muscle strains and tears trying to maneuver patients, and when dealing with cognitively impaired patients can be injured by violent outbursts. Such working conditions coupled with low pay and little room for advancement have led to a 100 percent annual turnover rate for direct care jobs. Workers simply burn out or leave for a better offer. Seavey said the high turnover rates create a vicious cycle, in which employers are reluctant to invest in staff training or other practices to improve job satisfaction. As a result, direct care workers burn out quickly and can often find jobs that pay the same wages without the same hardships. The workforce churning, in turn, leads to a lower quality of care. PHI has been advocating for expanding the role of the CNA and home health worker in health care. By increasing their value, they hope to stem the low retention rates, thereby raising

Working as a CNA allows prospective nurses to get a feel for what a nursing career entails before committing to the long process of becoming a licensed practical nurse or a registered nurse. It helps the hospital find new nurses but also challenges them to maintain sufficient CNAs on board. “Probably our number one struggle is how we get them into our nursing force,” Steinke said, “and then backfill behind them because they are going on.”

If health officials are worried about meeting the future demand for direct care workers, they can take solace that the career path offers a low barrier to entry and fairly stable work for those who enjoy it. New CNAs can be trained within three to four months. Federal law requires only 75 hours of training for CNAs and home health aides, and only 14 states require at least 120 hours of training, as recently recommended by the Institute of Medicine. Central Oregon Community College offers a CNA training program with 30 slots each quarter and cuts off its waiting list at another 20 students. Dawn Lane, a registered nurse who oversees the CNA program, said one of the difficulties with the current arrangement is that admission priority is given to students with more college credits under their belts. “People on the nursing track quite often do,” she said. It skews the supply of CNAs toward those planning on becoming nurses, and fewer true entry-level candidates who might work longer as CNAs. Lane said training programs also have trouble finding enough nursing instructors and facilities in which students can acquire the hands-on patient care experience required by state law. She takes students to train at The Summit Assisted Living in Bend for basic skills, and then at Cascade View Nursing Center for some of the skilled care they need to learn. Lane also oversees a CNA training program at Redmond High School where students can complete the training requirements over the course of a school year and graduate with a vocation or a head start on the nursing track. The students learn the same skills as the COCC students, but in a different time frame and through different methods. One of the standard parts of the program is a potluck lunch in which students must prepare soft foods that can be eaten by elderly patients, and then practice feeding one another. “It helps them realize what type of foods we’re talking about and how it feels to feed someone else or be fed,” Lane said. From 2007 to 2010, the Redmond High program has trained 15 CNAs. Similar pro-

grams are being considered in Crook and Jefferson county schools as well. While such programs may help increase the supply, Lane is concerned that not enough is being done to make CNA work attractive. “This is strictly a personal opinion, but unless they provide better wages and benefits for CNAs, most of them are on a track for something where the pay is a little more and there are better benefits for them,” she said. “I wish more people would consider working as CNAs; it can be very rewarding. If you’re looking for a stable job, you might be able to do that.”

Moving home While demand for direct care workers is expected to grow, the distribution is clearly changing direction. Whereas the majority of direct care workers historically were employed by nursing homes and hospitals, there has been a steady shift toward home and community-based settings. According to PHI, over the last decade the demand for nurse aides in hospitals and nursing homes increased by 7.5 percent. Demand for in-home aides rose by 133 percent. By 2018, home and community-based aides will outnumber those working in facilities by nearly a two-toone margin. Seniors today are more likely to want to stay at home and bring in care workers as they age, than to enter a retirement or nursing home. That trend is expected to continue with the affluent baby boomer generation just now reaching retirement age. The result is workers will need to have the experience and skills to work more independently, to exercise their own judgment and skill, with far less direct supervision. They are likely to face a higher acuity patient in home settings but may lack the appropriate devices for lifting, carrying and supporting clients. And a quirk in federal minimum wage laws creates an exception for home care workers. Originally, the law created an exemption for workers providing “companionship” services. Home care workers, who have

increasingly provided more complex care, have fallen into that loophole, allowing employers and families to pay them less than the minimum wage. A number of elder care organizations have formed a coalition seeking to close the loophole but acknowledge its a complex issue because many states have developed extensive home care service delivery systems based on the exemption. An abrupt change could throw the care for many elderly and disabled people into disarray. But it’s left direct care workers with some of the lowest wages in the country. “We have a business model that has an unfortunate low investment, high turnover, low return model,” Dawson, the PHI president, said. “Over the eight-year period ending in 2007 in real wages adjusted for inflation, per capita health care spending has increased 30 percent, salaries for doctors and RNs have increased 16 percent and for direct care workers, wages decreased 3 percent.” Instead the health care system is banking on workers like Hussey and Russell, who take great joy in taking care of people, or on others who have no other employment options. “I love knowing that I’ve made a difference for somebody because I do get those hugs, the ‘Thank you so much,’” Hussey said. “‘Thank you, you’ve changed my stay here.’ I get that a lot.” But after nine years, she wants to try something else and is pursuing a job as a massage therapist. Russell said she will probably work as a home health aide until she retires. She relishes the relationships she’s built with her patients. “There’s a certain amount of trust on both sides that you build with people, and friendships. Sometimes it’s very hard when you get attached to someone. They refer to you as their daughter,” she said. “It means a lot to the people that we see and how much they depend on us. A lot of times, we’re the bright spot in their lives.” Markian Hawryluk can be reached at 541-617-7814 or mhawryluk@bendbulletin.com.

Running

EXERCISE TIPS High-intensity interval training: It’s intense, but not for everyone High on energy but short on time? High-intensity interval training can boost metabolism and help in weight loss, as well as build muscle, according to Michael Bracko, a sports physiologist and fitness consultant in Calgary, Canada. In a high-intensity interval training workout, also known as HIIT, a person alternates between intense effort and easy effort. For example, a person could rotate 60 seconds of walking and 60 seconds of sprinting for 25 minutes. The method can also be applied to biking, skating, weight lifting or other forms of exercise. “I do sprint intervals with my dog. I throw a stuffed duck, she chases it, and I chase her. It’s a blast,” said Bracko in a news release from the American College of Sports Medicine. Bracko recently discussed this topic at the group’s Health & Fitness Summit & Exposition. During this type of workout, a person consumes more oxygen than in slower, distance exercise, which can increase post-exercise metabolism. Research has shown one session can burn calories for 1.5 to 24 hours after exercise, according to the news release. “The real advantage of HIIT versus

Thinkstock

distance training is that you can get the same benefits — such as fat loss, improved muscle cell function, increased oxygen consumption and improved anaerobic capacity — but you don’t have to exercise as long,” said Bracko. This type of exercise is not right for everyone. It comes with an increased risk of injury and may not be safe for some, including anyone with an injury.

College students find time for workouts By Vicky Hallett The Washington Post

“How many more do we have?” trainer Angel Mann shouted to a dozen students at Howard University in Washington. The correct answer was “Eight,” which the group panted back in unison while pumping their knees in the air. Twice a week, Mann takes over the common room at Tubman Quad, a freshman dorm, to lead an hour of aerobics, strength training, core work and dance. It’s probably not the class most high school seniors envision when thinking about their collegiate careers. But it’s a vital resource for members of the Howard community, including 18-year-old freshman Neena Speer. “If I’m on my own, I don’t work out as hard,” says Speer, who credits regular attendance with helping her drop from a size 18 to 14 over the past few months. In a society that’s heavier than ever, students remain as busy as ever, so it’s up to colleges to figure out how to make physical activity an integral part of campus life. Offering facilities and services costs money, but for the most part, students use them for free (not counting tuition, of course). The exceptions are specialized group exercise classes and personal training, which usually come with a nominal fee. “If you pay for something, you’ll do it,” says Kelly Oddy, assistant director for recreational sports and fitness at American University, which charges $65 per semester

for a group exercise class pass. And when they do it, they see results, school fitness directors say. The goal isn’t to force the entire student body to become jocks, but to get the benefits of healthier living. Student satisfaction numbers have soared at Johns Hopkins University since the O’Connor Recreation Center opened in 2002, vastly increasing activity outlets for students. “This is a recruiting tool,” says William Harrington, senior associate director of the department of athletics and recreation. Right then, a tour group marches in to marvel at the cardio room with floor-to-ceiling windows, the indoor track and a climbing wall. No matter what schools offer, they’re competing against students’ hectic schedules. Haley Crock, a 20-year-old sophomore at U-Md., said the spectacular natatorium was one of the reasons she came to College Park. But laps are rarely in the cards. “I’m a mechanical engineer, so I don’t have time,” says Crock, even though her dorm is “right there.” That’s why schools have also begun to take fitness to students. In addition to those free classes at Tubman Quad, Howard puts some pieces of exercise equipment in dorms. Hopkins does the same thing. “As open as we are, from 6 a.m. to midnight, students want more convenience,” says Anne Irwin Tillinghast, assistant director of fitness.

Ambushed by recurring cold sores? Here’s why By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

For such a ubiquitous plague, cold sores can be mighty shaming. In addition to the indignity of wearing a bulging, weepy blister on your lip, sufferers also must contend with the stigma of its source: HSV-1, a type of herpes simplex virus. But unlike HSV-2, the virus that usually causes genital herpes, cold sores are not usually sexually transmitted (though they can be). Most people get infected with HSV-1 as kids, from kissy adults. “It is one of the most common viral infections, and yet you’re a pariah,” said Dr. Adam Friedman, director of dermatologic research at Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University in New York. “People look at you like you’re a leper.” About 70 percent of Americans are infected with HSV-1, but just a third of those infected have cold sore outbreaks, said Bryan Cullen, professor in the department of molecular genetics and microbiology at Duke University Medical Center. Genetics likely separates the lucky from the unlucky, he said. The hardy virus, which stays in your body your whole life, survives by moving up the sensory nerves after initial infection and vacationing in nerve bundles, where immune cells can’t find and destroy it. Triggers such as stress, fatigue, sun exposure, picking at your lip or having a cold or the flu can reactivate some infected cells, which travel back to the initial infection site to cause a new outbreak. There is no cure. Cullen and fellow researchers hope to find a way to disrupt the processes that keep the virus latent, so that they can coax it out of hiding all at once and ambush it with medication. But they’re not close to clinical trials, Cullen said. HSV-1 has been implicated in a number of diseases, including Alzheimer’s, though that link is

disputed. Though there are rare cases of severe complications from HSV-1 — such as when the virus spreads to the brain in immunocompromised people, causing death or neurological damage — for the most part “the worst part about (HSV-1) is probably the social stigma,” Friedman said.

Treating cold sores Though the virus is most contagious during an outbreak, when the virus is “shedding,” it’s also possible to transmit when no outbreak is visible. According to a study published in 2008 in an oral medicine journal, at least 70 percent of people with HSV-1 shed asymptomatically at least once a month. Friedman recommends keeping your mouth away from others when you feel a cold sore coming, during the outbreak and for a few days after it goes away. That includes oral sex, as HSV-1 can be transmitted from mouth to genitals (HSV-2 also can be transmitted from genitals to mouth). Taking prescription antivirals such as acyclovir (Zovirax) or valacyclovir (Valtrex) can reduce healing time or prevent a blister from forming at all, clinical trials have shown. It’s best to attack during the “prodrome” stage, when many people feel tingling or itching at the infection site, or have flulike symptoms, before a blister appears. Friedman suggests applying ice at the first hint of a cold sore, holding it against the infected site for no more than 15 minutes, to reduce swelling. You might also soak a cotton ball in whole milk and hold it against the sore for 10 to 15 minutes daily, Friedman said. Milk contains the protein monocaprin, which can halt HSV-1. Finally, cover a blister with a thick emollient such as petroleum jelly to speed healing and protect the wound from bacteria, Friedman said.

Answering Continued from F1 In a study of primary care physicians published in 2003, two-thirds said their offices used an answering service. The purpose is two-fold, said Carpenter. “We take emergency calls, and we screen the nonurgent calls.” CentraTel began in 1984 when Carpenter bought an existing but imperiled business, Girl Friday Telephone Answering Service. Medical practices were some of the first clients, Carpenter said, and are one of the service’s specialties. Inside CentraTel, the office is sparse but comfortable, with plants hung around the room. Operators work at small desks, talking to clients and sending messages through a computer system to physician offices. Regular business hours are the slow times at CentraTel. The busiest times are when everyone else is closed. Saturday morning is the shift with the highest number of staff; 12 people work the phones that day. The operators are often dealing with sensitive health issues, and when they contract with a physician office they negotiate how to handle clinical calls, said chief operating officer Andi Freeman. “We aren’t medically trained, so we aren’t going to decide if a racing heart rate is something” a doctor needs to hear about, said Freeman. In that case, she said, operators would page the physician or nurse on call. Most symptom calls, Freeman said, will get referred to a physician or nurse. If a patient calls after hours about making an appointment or getting a prescription refill, operators typically relay that message the next morning, Freeman said.

How to stay healthy on planes By Alison Johnson Daily Press (Newport News, Va.)

Summer flights are on their way, along with the germs that ride along. Follow these tips to “put the odds overwhelmingly in your favor of not catching a cold or the flu,” says Dr. Mark Gendreau, an air-travel expert and vice chair of emergency medicine at the Lahey Clinic in Burlington, Mass.: Drink lots of water. Nasal membranes — an important barrier against germs — don’t work as well if they dry out. Keep in mind that the air on planes is very low in humidity. Use saline nasal spray. Sprays can increase how rapidly the tiny hairs that line nasal passages beat back and forth to expel germs. They also help keep membranes in the eyes, nose and mouth moist. Carry hand sanitizer. Buy products that contain at least 60 percent alcohol and clean your hands frequently, especially before touching your face. Wipe down trays and seat handles. Both can be contaminated with dangerous germs such as drug-resistant bacteria. Clean with alcohol-based hand sanitizer or an antibacterial wipe. Increase the ventilation at your seat. Saliva droplets from sneezing, coughing and even conversation can fly up to six feet in the air and rain down on nearby passengers. Turn the vent above your seat to medium flow and position it so the current moves just slightly in front of your face. Consult your doctor. People who are pregnant, battling a serious respiratory infection, undergoing chemotherapy or taking an immunosuppressant are at higher risk for complications from an infection and may need to take extra precautions.

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Denise Jones, an assistant manager, takes calls at her desk at CentraTel in downtown Bend. CentraTel provides answering services for many of the area’s medical clinics. Many Central Oregonians have likely talked to one of CentraTel’s employees without ever knowing.

“You have to know when to be empathetic. It can be a tough job.” — Andi Freeman, CentraTel For patients, answering services can be a benefit because they can ensure that you talk to medical personnel. If the patient needs to speak with a physician urgently and doesn’t hear back soon after the call, he or she can call back. Then, CentraTel will try cellphones, home numbers, even an overhead page

at the hospital to get a doctor’s attention. Many of the calls that the service gets are for medication issues or post-surgical problems, said Hollee Wilson, a manager. They also get a lot of calls from parents who have feverish kids and, because of their obstetrics clients, women going into labor. Some of the toughest calls come from the homes of hospice patients. They get calls from people saying their spouse can’t breathe and is gasping for air, said Wilson, or that someone is unresponsive and the caller is not sure if that person is dead. “You have to know when to be

empathetic,” said Freeman. “It can be a tough job.” New staff are trained by the company in how to handle calls and talk among themselves when something really gets to them, said Freeman. But, she said, she has had people quit because of the intensity of the emotion involved in some cases. Wilson said you have to remember that people are calling because they need something. “You are their link to help,” she said. “That helps to feel good.” Betsy Q.

• Want to get away from the hubbub of Riverbend but still see everyone? The half marathon and 5K courses both run through the park, with 5K runners heading east, and half marathoners going west.

Happy Girls Half Marathon makes its debut in Bend They suspected it would be a hit, but organizers of the inaugural Happy Girls Half Marathon appear to have socked a home run. Maybe even a grand slam. “It’s definitely exceeded all our expectations,” admitted Gina Miller, marketing and sports events director with Lay It Out Events, the Central Oregon company putting on this weekend’s Happy Girls running events in Bend. The featured race is Sunday’s half marathon, a 13.1-mile race that will start and finish at Riverbend Park, off Colorado Avenue along the Deschutes River. Miller said a registration limit for the half marathon (including a relay division) was set, optimistically, at 1,000. Happy Girls schedule That limit, she said Monday, Start/finish area for all races is at was reached last week. Riverbend Park We’re pretty happy about that,” Miller beamed.

That includes men — husbands, fathers, sons and boyfriends are all allowed to participate in the Happy Girls races (although men are not eligible for prizes). Miller noted, however, that probably 98 percent of entries received have been from women. “Maybe,” she added, “even 99 percent.” — Bill Bigelow

HAPPY GIRLS: NOTABLE Happy Little Girls Run kicks off weekend of races A girl doesn’t have to be a grown-up to be happy. A race just for youngsters — the Happy Little Girls Run — is scheduled for Saturday during the first day of the Happy Girls Half Marathon weekend in Bend. Like the half marathon and 5-kilometer races for the big girls, the Happy Little Girls Run will take place at Riverbend Park. Three race distances will be offered: 50 yards for ages 3 and 4, 500 yards for ages 5 to 7, and 1.5 kilometers (about one mile) for ages 8 to 10. The races start at 1:30 p.m. Entry fee is $20; registration may be completed online at www.happygirlsrun.com/registration. Packet pick-up and late registration for the Happy Little Girls Run will be available at the race site Saturday until 1 p.m. Participants in the Happy Little Girls Run will receive a race T-shirt and a bib number. Organizers note that 100 percent of the proceeds from the Happy Little Girls Run will go to KIDS Center, the race beneficiary.

Runners pass the Bay Bridge during the 2009 Nike Women’s Marathon in San Francisco. In recent years, more than 20,000 runners competed in the annual marathon, the vast majority of them women.

A women-only trend? The Happy Girls Half Marathon is one of a growing number of races — many in the Pacific Northwest — that try to focus on female runners While something of a novelty here in Central Oregon, the Happy Girls Half Marathon is hardly the only running event around that is aimed specifically at women. In fact, the inaugural Happy Girls Half in Bend joins a growing list of “women-only” (or “women-mostly”) events on the region’s running calendar. Gina Miller, race director for the Happy Girls Half, points to intimidation as one reason why some women prefer taking part in races designed in particular for runners of their own gender. “This kind of eliminates that (intimidation) factor,” says Miller of races whose fields are made up exclusively or predominantly of women. “And,” she adds, “it makes a good excuse for a girls weekend.” One of the largest running events catering to women in the United States is the Nike Women’s Marathon in San Francisco. In each of the past two years, more than 20,000 runners have competed. This year’s race is Oct. 16. Here are some other women-only, or women-oriented, Northwest races on the 2011 slate: • Run Like a Mother 5K (held May 8 — Mother’s Day — in Portland) • Hippie Chick Half & Quarter Marathon (held May 8 in Hillsboro) • Run Girlfriend Run 10K and 5K (held May 22 in Sandy) • New Balance Girls on the Run 5K/1K (June 4 in Corvallis) • Women’s 4K Moon Run & Walk (July 9 in Olympia,

Runners cross the finish line in the 2010 Eugene Women’s Half Marathon. Last year’s race was the inaugural edition and it proved popular, drawing some 1,900 runners.

Running a half marathon can be a nerve-racking experience for almost anyone, but especially for rookies. If you are new to the 13.1-mile distance, or just want some reminders on race day, here are a few tips to keep in mind for Happy Girls.

Plan to run the first mile or two of the race at a pace slower than your goal race pace, and then work your way into your target pace. You have plenty of distance to make back the difference, and you will if you conserve a little energy so that you feel strong at the end. But if you go out too fast, you could crash and burn later in the race, which makes for a really long and unpleasant day.

Vendors, exhibitors and activities will all be part of the Happy Girls Expo during this weekend’s Happy Girls Half Marathon races in Bend. The expo, to be staged in Riverbend Park near the race start/finish area, will be operating from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday. “We’re really creating a festival atmosphere down at Riverbend Park,” says race director Gina Miller. “There’ll be activities going on all day, both days.” For a list of some of the vendors scheduled to be part of the Happy Girls expo, visit www.happygirlsrun.com/raceinfo/expo.

Ready to be a Happy Girl? Tips for running a half marathon 1. Start slowly

Expo will make for ‘festival atmosphere’

2. Don’t do anything new on race day The day of an event is not the time to break in new running shoes, depart from your typical diet or wake up hours earlier than you normally do (unless you need to so you can get to the start on time). Changes to your routine on race day can result in some unexpected and, most likely, unwelcome surprises.

3. Situate yourself appropriately at the start If you are a slower runner or a walker, get in the back of the pack at the start line. The beginnings of races can be chaotic, but they go much more smoothly if participants do their best to arrange themselves by pace from fastest at the front to slowest at the back. (Note: Sometimes races have signs at the start with pace times on them, which can help participants sort themselves into appropriate starting positions. The Happy Girls designated pacers may also be carrying balloons or markers with their respective goal paces, so keep an eye out for those as well.)

4. Bring a variety of clothing The half-marathon starts at 9 a.m., and highs are expected to be in the 50s on Sunday. You should dress so that you are a bit cool at the start but will warm to a comfortable temperature when you get moving. It’s always nice to have additional layers on hand to wear before you begin the race and after you finish. Think about taking two sets of clothing besides your race clothes — one set for before and one set for after — in case of rain. There’s nothing worse than putting wet clothes back on after a race.

5. Fuel and hydrate before, during and after Proper nutrition is a key component in having a positive race experience. Hydrate in the days leading up to the race, and eat a solid breakfast Sunday morning, as your body will need the calories. During the race, remember to drink sports drink and consume a gel or two with water at the aid stations. And do not neglect your body after you hit the finish line: Eating and rehydrating immediately after you get done helps your body recover.

Central Oregon’s KIDS Center (Kids Intervention Diagnostic Service Center) has been designated as the beneficiary of the inaugural Happy Girls Half Marathon, 5K and Happy Little Girls runs. Operating since 1994, KIDS Center is a child advocacy center dedicated to the prevention, evaluation and treatment of child abuse. Its mission is to offer a safe and caring environment in which children can share their stories of neglect and sexual and physical abuse with trained professionals as a first step toward healing. With locations in Bend and Prineville, KIDS Center offers services to Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook Counties.

Half marathon grows in popularity in United States The women-only nature of the inaugural Happy Girls Half Marathon is not the only trend the new Central Oregon event is following. The 13.1-mile distance of this weekend’s featured race is also something of a recent rage in the world of running. According to Running USA, a nonprofit organization that promotes the running industry in America, the half marathon has been the fastest-growing road-race distance in the United States since 2003. Running USA also reports that, in 2010, women made up 59 percent of the fields in U.S. half marathons — approximately 820,000 female finishers overall. Gina Miller, race director for the Happy Girls Half, says the expected field of 1,000 entries for Sunday’s big race in Bend includes “an inordinate number of first-time half-marathoners.” “It’s a popular distance,” Miller says. “People look at it as a stretch, but not too much of a stretch. It’s an attainable goal — a reasonable carrot to put out there to stay in shape.” — Bulletin staff reports
